With your fantastic panel beating / forming skills I don't think you'll have too much of a problem getting the poor GT looking as good as new.

Nice background in that first picture
I guess that GT body is too far gone and a donor body seems the most logical option.

The spare wheel seems to be on the seat. What is 'surprising' is that the rear suspension has not yet collapsed as a result of a totally rotten rear subframe. I have had some Mini's where that happened while the body was still in far better condition than this one...
