Need help with 1977 Excella 500 parts

[LaurieK]

Hello!

We just got a 1977 Excella 500 that's in poor condition. We would like to update it to acceptable shape and need help knowing where to find good deals on parts.

For example, we are looking to replace a side window and frame, stripping, and some other pieces. Also, the back end has been hit and needs a fair amount of work. Can someone make a recommendation on whether we should replace the whole end or just part by part? Related to that, how do you deal with the rivets on the aluminum?

Thanks for any help you can provide.
