Classic transportation in Youngtown Ohio used to carry some parts for those, also Munchkin motos did too, as far as fixing the dents, you'll need a body hammer and a dolly, you can remove most all the dents with hammer nd dolly, just go easy, lots of light hits, if you hit it too hard yop'll streah the metal, and you dont want that, get it as close as you can with the hammer, them you can use the body plastic filler, start with 80-150 paper on rough body work, and as the body gets smoother switch to 220 paper, onecs the body is smooth, prime with a high build primer, sand with 400 and paint, feel free to call me and i'll talk you thru it (580) 796 2313
