Damian,

First off, those panels were welded together from the factory, so don't hope they aren't now.

If 100% originality is the issue for show purposes, yes, a judge would hit you for having the seam filled... and it would matter only if the another car in stock Amazon class was so evenly matched to yours that there was nothing else to pick on. We see some cases of that sort of thing in stock 1800 class, but I haven't yet in Amazon. It's usually fairly clear how to rank the entries overall.

In modified class, filled seams are not any points off. Might conceivably even be a plus.
