Cost to fix DENT?

What would it cost to fix this dent? I’m thinking about buying this Airstream but was wondering what it would take to fix this dent.

I think alot of it could be pulled out (not the parts on seam) and make it look better, check other posts for removing dents.
But to have it fixed I think runs about $800.00 per segment and less I am sure for the center one.
Check Inland to find out if they have the segments you need and you could do it yourself for a lot less.
Check that area for leaks as the way it looks, if it doesnt leak now, it probably will eventually.

$1,000 per segment is closer to the mark. Of course, it depends upon where it is done. I count three, possibly four segments damaged. Only two, however, can be readily seen from the ground.
