Looks as though the rear door has been crushed forwards by the rear ending it got.

Purely from seeing it done to classic cars, would a re-shell be a feasible option ?

Where would you get a v8 shell from?

Are they very different from a standard 75/ZT shell then ?

Yes the shells are different as the V8 is rear wheel drive. Damage isn't severe enough to warrant a reshell. Also if damage was that bad the car wouldn't be being sold as a damage repairable.

Based on the fact that this car is at Silverlake Garage in Southampton and not too long ago this news item appeared in the local paper, I suspect the two are one and the same.
https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/176...-outside-home/ So it appears this car was accidentally reversed in to a wall. Mark |

with the frontal ns damage, it looks like the rear door damage has come from the from being sandwiched between two other vehicles, and I would bet the rear door will be tight to open, if it does open (but I would think it will be the frame of the door will be the issue rather than the shell/chassis, ie replacement door)
