Hi Alan,
Thanks for this very odd and interesting photo.
It generates some questions and comments for me

- Why is the guy painting the gas tank, differential, half-shafts, etc.? I didn't think that was in the Vette assembly process at all. I thought frames arrived at St. Louis already painted by A.O. Smith (later, DowSmith)
- There's no exhaust installed, so this was not the muffler blackout station previously discussed.
- Where in the process do you have frames with no bodies and bodies with no frames in the same paint booth?
- Is the guy in the white shirt and tie there for an "NTFP" reason? Hence, why the photo was taken? Marketing gimmick?
Who knows???
