IMO I would leave it alone. Something like that will stand out like a sore thumb. Especially red. I hope it's not a whole quarter panel?

No, its just a good sized dent on the body line just above the rear wheel. There are about a hundred paint chips clustered in one spot on the passenger door that I wanted to touch-up. Only wanted to do a couple of spot touch-ups... thought it could be blended in if I got some laquer.

[/ QUOTE ] One of my 70 Nova's "was" a survivor and I regret worrying about the paint, but had I had a garage like my dad has now, I would have left it alone. IMO put a good glaze on it and leave the dent alone. It's only original once. Kinda like telling the kid not to touch the hot stove theory! LOL
