From the ebay advert: "The chassis is extremely rusty and I would think anyone attempting to restore it would need a Appia sedan donor car for the chassis sheet metal."

Its one of those "start from a jig and build up" rather than "cut a bit out and replace - repeat" cars...

Anyone see the Car SOS with an AC Aceca?  They used a glue to replace the lower edge of the ali sills where it wrapped the steel chassis.  "As used on modern production cars and underground trains" was the comment.  The applicator looked like an enormous hot melt glue gun but it could just have been an electric dispensor for a conventional cartridge.

Here's one example with the applicator gun down the bottom:

There's quite a range:
