It's the fault of the bad photography, I'm thinking. Yes, the rust is parallel to the frame rails, and you can stick a screwdriver through them in a couple places. The forward leaf spring mounts are history. Someone did a patch on the driver's floor, and sometime in the past they cut the transmission hump, so there's some bad news there, too. It looks like I'll have to get a pair of full-length frame rails and body pans to clean the mess up.
If it's running, take it apart and see why.
