Ummm, not sure what to title this

[510revisited]

So i removed my driver fender to inspect the underside. Check for rust, damage from my recent accident, blah blah blah. I noticed these welds that weld the non removable part of the cowel to the rest of the car. They look like mig. Not a factory spot. Is that normal, or has some one been here before me9

Normal

Looks like a factory weld to me.

Think about the age that these were being built... no robot welders just some guy... 

They probably just get told how many spot welds to put in a given area ... I bet if you looked another 510 in that area the spots would be close but probably not exactly the same spot....

I did a few days of spot welding on the line at GM in '74?. Shitty job and ruins T shirts. Had to have at least 8 spots across the bottom of the GM truck rear window. If you got 10 (or more) that was fine with them. Two years later spray painting where I usually worked was robotized and likely the spot welding too. By then I was long gone.

Those are normal factory welds...........😁
