Got the tub off of the frame. The good news: frame looks to be in excellent condition at least from a first look standpoint it doesn't appear to need any work.
The bad news, the tub might not be worth saving. Firewall, dash, and cowl, are generally fine. Floors need work, but are doable. Power wash revealed original paint colors that don't match between floors and rear bed. Rear bed was poorly replaced sometime in the past. Between rust, support replacement, poorly done Bondo, sheet metal welded on top of side panels around rear of jeep on both sides, and more "fun" items, the cost involved in replacing everything, from the floors back (toolbox might be salvageable) gets pretty darn close to a replacement tub. Not an easy call, but at the moment I am leaning toward purchasing a new tub. Taking this path doesn't feel quite "right," but given what little there is to work with and my limited skill set, it may be the best course.
