That was after some disassembly when it was heading to the chassis shop to get new rear frame rails and trunk floor. It had been modified with narrow 2x3 square tube rails.

After the new floors, rails and quarters were installed on a proper frame jig by Jube Mayes at The Installation Center in Georgia, all I've subbed out is the brake calipers and master/booster restorations, boring and balancing the shortblock and some minor head porting.
