This is the white one I just bought for my niece to drive back and forth to work,temporarily.Really low miles,runs great,but,body,as u can see,is rough.Think it is worth saving this body or transplant everything over to a better body ?Roof is so dented,too.

I agree... I'd say keep it and just work on it as you can. I have had no training in any body work or paint job, but I've been working on mine the best I could.www.cardomain.com/id/jermnc77

I was all for saving it until I got to pic number 5. Making me wonder how well the whole undercarriage is holding up. Assuming you have crawled under and taken a look? If the undercarriage is solid, I say fix it. 92K miles is not even warmed up yet. You should def. have the parts and panels needed.
