X2 on pics needed for sure. In my mind I would be more worried about rust than dents (depending on where they are). Dents are easier to fix than rust for the most part. A rust free tub with a few dents is still worth getting in my opinion.

And presumably you're referring to an entire Bronco, vs some new sheet metal or a gas tank you just got?

A dent in a rusty fender that needs replacing anyway means nothing.

Really need pictures. Depending on everything else it could be anywhere from no difference to whole body is junk.

Value of vehicle minus body work value and time to fix really.

Now, whats the dent hiding? Frame damage?

Mine is trully rust free.

Except for the 500 or so small sand pits on the front of mine that have small surface rust, which will be cleaned up upon paint time. No effect on value IMO.

Sorry your question just doesn't make much sense, missing all the details. Are you talking about a panel with a single dent or a car that's been banged to HECK? All depends on what you are talking about from 10% to 99% less.

Without pictures we can't tell if it is a few dents without creases that can be pulled out with a suction cup or hail damage so bad that it looks like it was shot blasted with marbles or...

Subtract $54.63 per square inch. Depending on color and options

Nothing like using oem sheet metal. Even with some rust and dents. Of coarse there is a time to throw in the towel and go with not so great fitting after market panels. With the prices of original body paneled Broncos I would really try and save what I could.
