I would replace the frame if it was my car. Once the sheet metal is off it's a relatively easy job plus you can have a perfectly fresh and painted chassis. I have done several "body offs" and my favorite time is replacing all the components on the fresh frame. Nothing is in your way and you are not working on your back. If the original frame is that bad, it might take the same time.
