Welcome aboard!  This is the first time I've ever seen a box like that.  Is it home built.  Looks nice enough that it might be an aftermarket unit.  I just don't see it being put on by Datsun :)

Looks like your bumper is still okay...just bent brackets.  You can take that off and straighten the brackets.  The front end will look a ton better just with that.  You could do a couple simple things like that on the exterior to make it look a bit better, but they're a lot more fun if you can drive them!!  I'd put most of the effort into mechanical :)
