Just drove home in my '82 Westy that had the driver's front panel and door repaired at South Bay Body Shop (650-365-1847) in Redwood City.  They charged $500 to cut out and weld a new panel from the windshield down, straighten the door, and shoot it with primer.   I got the panel at the VW garage across the street (Fred's Garage 650-368-5343) for $100.

They did a great job for the price, and I'll go back to them when I get the car prepped for paint.
