It's good you got the hood and tripower setup. the rust is no problem. I'd take it to redi strip there and the electrolytic alkaline process would blow all the rust off and make it clean. Looks like it was an AC car and you have the parts in boxes. You can save some work and block that off if you want. There are good clean western frames in yards out west. I bought one for one of my 64's. Not sure if I'll use it or not. Original frame is rust free, but needs the front lower link brackets welded back on (someone cut them off), and I'm sure the cross member will be cracked when I get the body off (typical cracking on passenger side form body torque and no reinforcement brackets.
