25% is probably a good guess maybe less. 1/2 the quarter panel, 2/3 of the roof most of the doors the dash and the top half of the rear gate and maybe the hood.All the rest will be replaced.
Friday we got the front and back pushed back together. It looks very short in the picture but the door will get extended by 16" soon. We also got the shop cleaned up a little bit
