Well… 10 years laid up in a seaside location doesn’t tend to treat car panels well.

Valves to one of the cylinders in the engine will have been open all this time, so that cylinder may not have faired well, even if the engine was fine 10 years ago, especially as you say the bonnet has dissolved. See if you can turn the engine over with a socket on the bottom crank pulley bolt when you take photos- if it isn’t seized that’ll be something.

I appreciate parts of the car may be worth something, but given a lot of the car probably isn’t and given your (very nice!) but somewhat remote location you may struggle to find a buyer.

Curious what the photos look like, as are others no doubt.

Cheers
