Harv,
No knowledge of Griffith but...If your going to sell it, will you recover
the cost of reparing a dent. I wondered about the same thing and always lost
with other vehicles but maybe it's worth it in your case. I have a small
dent that bothers me a lot more than it does anybody else but can't seem to
come off the green!
