new fan, or no?

hey, im tryin to not have to replace my fan, im on a tight budget. but anyways, the fan i have now got a lil bent when i was in the accident and it cut into the upper fan shroud. i have pics of it, and it doesnt look too bad. think i can bend it out a lil and re-use it?

I'd probably try to save it, if only because it's 7-bladed.

Looks fixable to me too
BTW that is a firebird 17" fan-besides '82-85 firebird,
that same blade is also used on many cadillac models,
