anything is repairable, its just a case of do you love the car enough to go to the trouble!

brackign the car up will remove any risk of the chassis twisting, you wont find much to worry about behind there except what was left behind by whoever repaired it last!

Definitely repairable. If you remove the piece from another car, anything attached behind will be attached to the new panel. From memory the only thing behind there is the door check strap thingy and the back of the hinges.
