I strongly suggest you go ahead and lift that carpet and rear pad and take a look at the cargo floor pan as well. Usually a lot of rust under there if it got very wet. From the looks of your brush bar, I think you should go ahead and check under the carpets and see what you got there.
My rear bumper has a significant degree of rust as well. One day I rapped the rear bumper a few good times with a hammer. It was amazing how much rust fell from below it.
Have you spent any time underneath it with a good light to evaluate the overall conditions underneath it yet?

I would strogly advocate as thorough an inspection as possible PRIOR to putting a lot of additional money into some of the items you listed. If the bottom, the frame or the entire floor pans look anything like that front bumper, you would be throwing a LOT of MONEY into a vehicle that may need more than cosmetic rust repair. Just something to consider before tying up tons of money fixing any vehicle. Discovery or not.
