I'd take the frame, too bad it's not in my size.

For the price of the campy parts and wheelset you could have bought a nice older road bike without frame damage.

This bike has vertical dropouts so I am assuming it started as a geared bike, was made into single speed and is now returning to it's original intended state. So I would say that this is a reversion.

I've always wondered if those paintless dent repair shops that do cars would be able to massage dents out of bike frames. I've seen them do some pretty amazing work, so I'm betting they could. I doubt that dent is affecting the integrety of the frame.
