The list doesnt seem bad enough to warrant a reshell, if the repairs are done properly it would last as long as a new shell anyway. The swap over isn't too bad. You transfer your chassis number to the new shell and iirc you have some sort of vic test where you show a new shell has been used and all going well thats it.
As i said before get some pictures up, i cant see it costing £3k for the repairs to be done on your shell. With the reshell, you spend nearly £4k and then you have to get it painted etc. Although it will be completely rust free for now.

I'll second that.. nightmare colour for the home bodger, specially cause its metallic and needs the clear coat. A tiny repair turns into needing the clear coat the entire panel! Go for a flat colour and make your life easier for any future repairs!
