Question Booger welds. 71' 442. W30
Hi all. My 71' 442 w30 has two welds on the frame. Exactly the same spot both sides. The welds look like a 2yr old did them. What are they?

Car drives true as an arrow and appears there are no cracks or suport plates welded to frame.
Are these shipping break welds?

Pictures would help, but it sounds like they are factory.
