Eppie Posted October 25, 2014 Share I am hoping to get my Peugeot Rapport up and running. I bought it with a dent on the down tube. The dent has not compromised the frame but I would like to fix it from an aesthetics point of view. I have done some research online and see some guys use turning blocks but these are hard to come by. Any advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letum911 Posted October 26, 2014 Share You can take it to a Auto body shop, they might be able to help. I know a guy that used body filler (same that they use on cars) to fill it up, sanded it down and repainted. Looks like new Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V12man Posted October 27, 2014 Share You need a good bodyshop guy - they spot weld pins to the dent and pull it out with a slide hammer. No idea who in CT though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
