Spot welds should be visible, grinder marks on fender top spot welds may be visible. Wired edge with serration marks from wiring machine.

Andrew Cranfield - Both fenders on my Jan 45 GPW have distinct deep f marks. The July 45 GPW of Tony Sudds also has both fenders f marked. This would suggest that the point of embodiment of non-marked fenders was dependent on old stocks being used up first and also suggests that every factory would have different dates of change over.
