My guess is that the rig will work fine.

It looks like the receiver was pretty much immaculate prior to damage.  Valueing
the immaculateness is subjective - I myself don't care much about the finer points.
Others do.

The front panel dent will be the easiest to bend back.  Get a big vise,
clamp the corner in some wood blocks, and bend back.

The back top corner will be a bit trickier, especially if you want to eliminate all
traces that it was damaged.  Hammerworking this back into shape will probably
leave some dings.

Tim.
