Car is pretty rough dude!

I would strip the car and then blast using medium blast media. Once done, I will be able to see how much of the car is left and solid. Attack an area at a time, don't try to do it all at once otherwise you will lose interest on the project.

But to give you an idea, the cheapest sheetmetal I have found is by buying a Ford truck hood. You can get them mostly for about $30 and you can make many, many patch panels with it.
