Having smashed my 72 99 when a tree jumped in front of me ;-( on a gravel road......
But at least it is only the side of the car hence you should have little or no chassis damage. Also your engine and interior is probably also undamaged.
As mentioned previously the doors are interchangable with the 900 and it is not that big a deal to cut and remove the entire front and rear quater panels and replace with some from a donor car.
It will be costly and will almost definatley cost more than the car is worth, unless you are really handy and do the work yourself. Mind you with a little patience you should be able to source the donor parts very cheap if not for free.
Good luck with your repairs, keep us informed
Justin
