Actually, the body parts are a lot cheaper than I would have thought. In the Classic Industries catalog (which I'm SURE isn't the cheapest place to buy such stuff) you can get a complete side panel for 409.99, a door shell for 629.99, and a fender for 191.99. The inner rocker panel is 78.99. Labor rates would kill the average customer, but all in all, i can see where a body shop could put a car like that back together with all new GM shetmetal for a few thousand dollars in parts. The use of some used panels and parts which are readily available would make repairs even less expensive.
