Default straightening aluminum gunwales?

I just found a very nice Shell Lake cartopper from the 50's or so. While
I'm fixing 50 years of bumps, paint and "regrettable DIY," I was thinking
of removing the gunwales to have them reformed and heat-treated.

Alternatively, I was thinking of replacing all the metal with functionally
equivalent wooden peices.

Ideas? Advice?

Thanks in advance.
