front fender inside markings questions for 70 W31.
What’s the usual thing to see inside the front fenders of a 70 W31 as far as assembly markings put there by a worker?
Scribbling to designate it has to be punched for the W31 emblems etc.

it’s interesting to me. Take a hike if you don’t want to know this stuff

the F85’s I’ve seen have a circle half way up the fender because that’s where the emblem went on those. My old W31 had white 31 scribble inside them. I’ve also seen other 31’s which were also white.
I have an odd one where the 31 is black and barely visible because inside of the fenders were black. It has the white circle where the F85 goes. I’ll post pics when I can.
it’s not a big deal and I’m sorry if people got upset🤣🤣. It’s just something to prove that not everything is as black and white as we’re are told, literally

all fenders had some kind of assembly line markings to tell someone down the line to punch whatever was needed.

who’s thinking anything? It’s just a little trivia about the way things were done during assembly.
this is the first time I’ve seen the marking in black. This is from a one owner documented car that never had its fenders off since it came from GM..kinda cool to uncover where this one was hidden.
fenders had to come off for the resto anyway. I’m just showing what was found.
