Firstly is it insured and will this claim be put through your or someone elses insurance?

Whats the damage like? Is it just panel damage or are the beam and wheel assembly stuffed as well?

If theres mechanical damage you could go the cheap way of just buying the new (or 2nd hand) parts you need and putting them on, or the more costly route could be take it to a vw mechanic like classic vw in kirrawee.

If its purely panel damage, depending on what needs doing, and the quality of the paint of the car I might be able to point you in the right direction, but pics would surely help. I have a few mates that are panel beaters, but as you will surely find, alot of panel beaters dont like working on the older cars as they require alot more love, unless the owner is forking out the big $$$
