Lots of good bits still left on your donor vehicle, I think it will prove invaluble.
I assume the front bumper was also used as a portable Barbie Plate ( not sure what you call them in Texas) for cooking sausages and steak, it would certainly get hot enough.
Some Champs have a number stamped on the top front of the chassis behind the bumper, however this appears to be just a manufactures number and has no relation to the number of a completed vehicle.
