In need of serious help bolting on door
I've been trying forever to bolt on my passenger side door. It was wrecked on that side and where the hinges bolt to the body it is bent inwards. I managed to bend out the bottom part of the body since it was accessible from the inside of the car, but i can't bend back out the top part since there is a chunk of metal blocking it from the inside and it takes quite a bit of force to bend it back out. I've tried tons of things and just don't have the cash to take it to a body shop and have them bend it out and bolt it up for me. Any suggestions?

I have a coffin hoist. It's pretty much just a really really big pulley system. Do you think that will work by any chance?
