    Here we call that a Bondo Buggy . If it was me I would use some of the Bug Parts you have stacked up and build a custom..

    if you can find 2 hands parts you will save time on fabrication , but not easy good luck Andy

    I don't think I have ever seen a vehicle with that much filler. Im from the Southern part of the U.S. so that may be why I haven't seen that. I have no doubt that you will get it all sorted! Keep up the good work! 😁👍
