Threre is a photo in the National Geographic Issue with the Article "When the Shuttle Finally Flies" which has Enterprise on the pad on the front cover. In that article is a larger photo showing the tile missing Columbia on top of the 747 flying near their VAB with 39A in the background. Near the bottom you can faintly see THIS Shuttle, later called Pathfinder, in a storage area
This was converted into "Pathfinder" Part of the full stack at The Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville,AL
Thanks, I was curious where this was currently located

Thank you : )
You are welcome!
Challenger was also a test article, no ?
For loads, yes. This mockup in the video was purely for fit checking
