Just spitballing here- - - -no hands-on experience, but I believe the Art Deco frame rails are a bit narrower than the Advance Design frames. You might want to check with Achipmunk- - - -he's got a 1937 pickup with a 305 in it, but I'm not sure if he's still running the straight front axle. The Atlas would need some major oil pan modifications to clear a straight axle. It runs a cast aluminum pan with a very deep sump. It's also got an oddball bellhousing bolt pattern.
