It doesn't look that terrible. Or is that a picture of the pretty bit? If you're going to scrap it surely it's worth attacking with a welder to see what you can do? You can pick up a set of panel beaters hammers fairly cheaply and bashing a bit of metal into shape can't be that hard... ???

This mog is never getting scrapped!  :o
Its to rare for one thing, its an original British import westfalia, the only one still around that we know of.

Its not just panels,

Above windscreen rotten out
Cab frame rotten away in most places
Light surround mouldings rotten
Big dent front left
Rear of cab cut out to improve visibility out of back  :-\
Rear cab mounts ripped of cab due to some wassok welding them to the chassis in the past  >:(
And more, plus a load to do with the chassis, originally it started without back body, it had a winch frame that had been thrown on it, so got rid of that and put the body on, so I havent completely neglected it.

But trust me, I will never scrap it  :)
