hire a porta power, makes it so much easier, if you can, make a brace that goes across the strut mounts or what ever you push off gets dented (did on mine lol) i was pushing off the bit under the rear shelf, or if the porta power comes with the clamps, then clamp it from where the bumper attaches with the plastic clips, chain it to a tre and drive off slowly, you will be suprised at how soft the backend is, but always start from where the main impact was, and if pushing with the porta power go about an inch and half further than what it suppose to be, as once you take the porta power off then the metal will spring back, shame you dont live closer as i would give you a hand and get get hold of a porta power
EDIT****
looking at the photo again you will probally be better off pulling it rather than pushing it, even if you can weld a bolt on to pull off will be good
