Well, a bit of time thinking about Absinth's suggestion.
I'll be looking for another panelvan body anyway for the proper panelvan side so can do the whole passenger side in 1 piece while there is no turret on it. I am going to see what else is about that has a completely rust & dent free body that can have windows (honestly can't see that happening as nearly everything within a price range of my now non existent budget will require work), if I do find the perfect HJ panelvan body & it's able to be bought & affordable I guess the rolling windowless HJ panelvan body I have now I can use the turret sides from that 1 to close up the windows even though that will be a bit of a shame as the roof turret is the best one I seen in the time I was looking & it'll make them expensive turret sides at $1500 by the time I picked the thing up & got it home from Melbourne.
I'll probably change my mind several times in the near future of what I will end up doing lol. I'll definitely keep this updated when I make a definite decision & it's too late to change my mind. Once the serious work starts I will start a build thread also because there will be a whole lot more than just panel & paint.
In the meantime I'll probably start blasting this other project & etch priming it ready for it's body work.
Thank you for all your input everyone.
