If you're going to have it painted, you might want to consider dropping the frame and having it powder coated, it's not that bad to do.

I consider myself Blessed! As far as the bumpers, the front is pretty good...I need to straighten it a little in the middle. I hope I don't crack the chrome, but the rear I am going to replace...
I already have split the frame and the body. I am now replacing all the bushings along with all brake and fuel lines and return lines. The frame is now painted and ready for me to start the reassembly...
