That is not the same structurally. It would be much weaker without the support of the flattened lip, but he apparently does not need to do it....I think.

A large adjustable wrench can help get it started. Bend it a little bit 4 or 5 times a few inches apart all the way across and then finish it with the mini sledge. Having someone on the inside sitting on it with a pillow will make it easier because it will help keep the body pan from deflecting...
