bondo can't fix crap except for scuffs and dings... the money and time you'll spend in tryin' to make that tank right would be better spent on a better tank... just fill that tank with sand and tie it around the ankles of the person who sold it to you before you push them off the bridge...

good point!

the materials are cheap though if ya wanna do it yourself its not that hard just time consuming.

hardest part with a massive dent like that is to get a welder to pull the dents.
after that its chill
