Default Help with straightening metal radio case

I have a metal radio case with a slight dent or bend on one corner of the
case. I have posted photos at
alt.binaries.pictures.radio Could I have some suggestions on the best way to
straighten it or some links to sites for same? I may or may not repaint the
case depending on what straightening does to the paint job.
Thanks,
Ed-KV5I

Some of those are the old flip top relay rack cases. If the front
panel is 19" wide by a multiple of 1.75" (1.75" 3.5" 5.25" 7" 8.75" etc)
high it is a flip top relay rack case. They are common on boatanchors
and test equipment to convert a rack mount item to portable, or desktop.
