After you get all of this done AND KEEP THE FRAME STRAIGHT.
You have a good chance of buying a new one. 
Good luck Craig

All this talk about frame welding should come with some caution. It's
important to remember that the frames are old and certainly thinner than
when new. The areas that show cracks are already stressed and grinding down
to good metal for weld prep won't help. Make your patches generously sized
and keep the heat down.
