=== google search <<jeep body panel photos>> and it is there for you -- also it is possible the JCWhitney (( www.jcw.com)) company has sources for those old parts that are spec. new and that might help you to replace what cannot be fixed.... g-luck

Some old Jeeps are really easy to source parts for because old 1950s style Jeeps are still made in the Philipines and India. But you have to know what year & model, and you didn't tell us that.
Don't worry about it.
Go to carfax and search the VIN to find out the year and model. Barnes and Noble sells a few Jeep restoration manuals. If neither of you are mechanically inclined, you'll want to get it professionally done or get a mechanic friend to help you. And please, don't screw it up. Jeeps are a real car.
