Welcome from Napa Valley!
Yeah good catch one the frame rails. I bought mine from a guy in San Mateo who had build records going back more than 15 years and swore there was no damage that he knew of. I checked thoroughly but until it came back from the blaster could I see that my rails were bent and the damage was covered up with undercoating. Oh well, replaced them when replacing the trunk pan and minitubbing.
Good luck with the build. Looks like a good foundation to start with.
