zenvwdriver,
i personally like to think that there are people out there who can simply repair the damage and drive them just like they are. a real old-fashioned panel beater.

… here's an almost perfect 1957 Low Light from a salvage, near me - always liked it too. this is at a local VW show...
I got a couppla' busses and a 1956 oval outta' salvage too - once split like 8 cords a' red oak, for the widow and she paid me with the 1960 23 window bus - also got a 1962 Westy SO33 outta' there - for fifty bux… sure dig all this old (and beautiful) junk...
… i call that place, Heaven.
