Frame straightned

I have a 89 f250 and it got wrecked and bent the frame. I had a body shop straighten it. But I was putting the body together and aligning it and I was wondering how close to center the body should be to frame. The guy I had straighten it didn't have a laser frame rack. So it would be up to him on how good it was done. I just didn't know how close it should be.

Well as of now to have my gaps right the body is about a inch an half of center. I think that is quite a bit. I think the guy that did my frame should of done better. I guess I will have to go talk to him. The truck really aint going to be used much for nothin but four wheelin. It probably would be ok. But what it cost to do the frame straighting it should be done right.
