Default factory bonding seams

Does anyone have a diagram showing where the factory seams are on the body? I know the ones along the upper fenders, but there must be more, right? I'm trying to verify my car had no body work and also confirm some of the imperfections in the surface.

I think the assembly manual might show that info.

gccch,
The Chassis Service Manual shows the exploded body on pages 1B-28, 29, 30 and 31.
A stripped, no hit body, is very pretty in an odd sort of way.
Regards,
Alan
