    Gas weld, planish the the heat affected zone (HAZ), then file, bump the low spots up, file more, shrink any high spots with heat or shrinking disk, file more, sand smooth.

    If you send me your address, I'll send you one of my sheet metal repair books. It's all about sheet metal repair and the ways of metal finishing.
