Hey guys, Hows it going? I don't know if this is the right section to post this....But I really need your opinions. Do you think it would cost alot or be worth getting repaired? I know you can buy replacement quarter panels online for a really cheap price. but what do you guys think?

Not the best pictures but you guys get the idea

Pull off the plastic cover on the rocker panel and see how it looks behind there. That might help you make up your mind.
But from what I've seen so far, I'd look for a cleaner shell to start a project with. It can be repaired but once you start cutting, it usually gets worse than it looks.
