Groan. While back grading on one of the mountain roads I've been cutting I felt a couple of bumps. Yes, bent the heck out of the engine cover panel. As you can see in the first pic I had to cut down about 10' on the hillside given the extreme slope to keep on virgin ground. This has left a lot of big tree roots exposed high up on the bank...which contributed to the damage when I came in close for grading. I don't think this is something a body shop would straighten and paint. Any thoughts on where I might locate a good used or, if necessary, new body panel.
The good news is that no engine components were damaged underneath the body panel.
Thanks for suggestions.
