The bow in the lower A pillar is bothering me. I want to fix it.

How do I do that?

Bend it straight with some sort of clamp? Pound it out from the inside and hope I don't tweak the whole pillar? Cut it out and weld it back in? Bring it to work and play with the torches to shrink and pop it back out?

No progress yesterday, but I did move everything around and got the trailer/cab inside the garage. Now I can work later (gets dark early now) and out of the bugs and wind. It's also raining all today and tomorrow. Hope to get some more work done today and tomorrow.
