Needs a little love, but too good of a deal. It'll offset my green OTG nicely and allow me to build a second UDS down the road.

Question for those experienced restorers, the lid is not quite true and has several dings around the rim. Any advice on fixing it?

Bridge the dings with a piece of wood. Hit the wood with a hammer to shape the rim against the lower rim.

nice ! you can actually "true" the lid by just pushing and pulling until it round. don't sweat it if its just a wee bit off.
for the bowl you will need to make a simple tool.

Great score! You should be able to tweak the lid as dadsr4 suggested.
