Buy stock in fiberglass resin and sandpaper...my uncle's took like a gallon or more per panel if its been dried out. It will wick the resin in and not even look like you touched the surface. Wiring and interior are a bitch too.

never played with that version. my dad's '60 we did a ton to, seemed easy enough but i was early teen so i'm sure i didn't know all that was going on.

my friend had a later one an '81 "buggy spring" was bad in rear

just to restate the obvious, check numbers. people love to swap the motors then sell them.

post lots of pics when you get one.

Helped do bodywork on one a few years back, we would just mix up the resin and pour it on, roll it on with a roller and it would be dry because it all soaked in
