4 pipes, it wasn't just the frame that was restored. The former owner had the car's mechanical bits rebuilt, and repainted the frame as well. The idea was to make certain everything was fresh mechanically but allow the car to retain the kind of patina that is lost when a full cosmetic restoration is performed. So now, the car looks old, but goes new.
