Makes no difference to me, it's just interesting because it appears original to me partly because of the rivets. Don't believe it's welded, although the thick flaky rust does look like weld spatter. The horizontal piece that bolts to the truck has a lengthwise bend I haven't seen in modern repops. Who knows, it could be from some other brand truck of that era.
