Drill out spot welds.
What you will have left with, will be noticeable

a car of its age, there may be some previous welding for rust repairs etc, however from factory it is spot welded in, best way is to cut it off piece by piece with an angle grinder and cut off discs, then clean up with a flapper disc on the angle grinder.

Thanks. Thats what i was thinking of doing. Then cleaning all the paint off so i can see if its just spot welded. Thanks
