Tobad you dident live near me i would help you get that thing fixed up. Id go buy a 110 welder and start grinding and tackin metal in. Some of the HotRod and Musclecar review mags have good detailed howto's on body repair/welding. basically if you could get the body straight and in paint, it would not even take but a couple of weekends to put the car together. then work on rebuilding drivetrain. My mom does upolstry work too. You could send the seats and door panels to me and we could redo them for a good price! I am an experinced trained mechanic that knows these cars inside and out and it would be fun to help you! I wish you were my neibor!! LOL Nobodys into old cars like i am on my block! lol
