Bad news burb !

Well we got to work on the burb this Holliday. It was all bad news. A,B,C and all the way to Z pillars on both sides are shot, Floor pan, fire wall, inner cowl, kick panels, both side panels from the front doors to the tail light need replaced, wood floor needs replaced . Rust at the threshold at the rear passenger door, rear door hinges bent, roof has some damage, front frame horns cut off for winch mount, front grill cut out for winch, overload pads welded to frame. Was in a accident at some point in its life (rear-ended) Geeeeeez ! My brothers say they can repair it correctly but I don't want to put them through that much work and the added cost to me is to much. Brother in law has another burb tub in nice condition for me. I just bought a 71 or 72 burb for $300.00 so we will have some options for a donor vehicle :/ Right now the burb will be put on the back burner for a short while.
