4/14/2019 update:

I've gotten the front & rear bumpers off, along with the hood, header panel, and front windshield. Unfortunately, I cracked the windshield during removal, but I don't think there's much that could be done to save it. A previous owner had made some (poor) repairs to the upper and lower corners on the passenger side, and the amount of glue they used made it really hard to get the wire through. The rear window is going to be even worse, because it appears they used a hard clear epoxy to glue that window in. There's probably a 98% chance I'll crack it within the first 10 seconds of trying... Oh well, glass isn't terribly expensive to replace.

There will need to be some metal work done in spots around the front windshield, mostly where the previous repairs were made, but it's not a total disaster. Next weekend the front fenders are coming off.
