The welding on the first picture isn't Ford.  There was no MIG welding in 1967. There is still wire attached to some of the welds.
They were welded with an arc welder/stick welding.  ..................

Have found the remains of "wires" on plenty of original cars built at San Jose over the years  in some locations. Sorry didn't document those specific locations and applications but they did stand out since I didn't expect the "wires" either but have seen enough to accept it

+1 have only seen a fraction of what Jeff has seen, but I've seen wires also.

I have 2 cars with the wires and have no reason to doubt that they were changed.
