OT-'57 Chevy Wagon vrs. Bullet Holes

[Ironhorse]

I have a real good friend of mine who has a '57 Chevy 2 Dr. (Not a NOMAD) station wagon. He was not able to get started on a re-store when he acquired it so he let it set at another friends house in the country (not the best place to store it in my opinion) and from the title you can guess. Several people at various times seemed to take delight in using it for target practice. Glass is all shot out and the body took several hits. Have not seen it recently so not sure of the number of "several hits". Some in the door skins, some in the rear quarters and some in the roof line area and tailgate. I am not a body man by no way but surely this poor wagon can be saved? Any one who does in-depth body repair/welding and patching care to give some advice or hints as to the proper way to find a true body repair shop that can tackle such a job and still make it feasible ($$$$) to re-store such a classic? Just a quick and general method of repair and what to check into would help.

It is beyond me how people can use a classic '57 Chevy or ANY vehicle for target practice.
