Agreed.
Get her running nicely then spend time on each panel as time and budget allow. PDR, machine polish and if necessary off to the bodyshop for a tidy of the front end.
A door is around £60 and if the tailgate is bad its a straightforward job too.
This should not be a parts car for the sake of bodywork....well worth the effort considering the purchase price.
