roof support windshield frame dents
« on: April 30, 2012, 12:04:25 am »
I have uniform "dents" on the right and left side interior front roof supports on my 78.  Are these from the factory?  My 75 doesn't have them.

     WOW, promisekeeper did you have a great weekend or what ?  I know sometimes it is hard to check your brain back into work mode after a great weekend.

Not spot welds. They are a couple inches above the dash on both sides just below where you might locate a gauge pod on the pillar.

Judging by your last discription I am going to assume your talking about the A pillars.
They are indents for screws to go into for the interior trim.
