Good going if it stands up to that.

Post WW2 my demobbed father was looking for work, having trained as a commercial vehicle body builder (wooden frame stuff) he ended up working for Brigg's Motor Bodies in Southampton, with contract test cab's for the Army's new trucks were on the agenda. These were to be built using ready stamped steel sheet, the first was built by the foreman using arc welding and broke pretty quickly, the second gas welded lasted a little longer, as the whole factory was dependent on the contract being won the body builder's were asked for ideas, my father suggested gas brazing as it would stick the steel sheets together ok, spread the load wider than a weld and anneal the steel better to reduce repeated stress fracturing. So he got the job of building the next two test cabs, spent several weeks prepping and cleaning the joint areas and bronzed together the cabs, both passed the required tests just fine, none of the other companies had brazed their samples, so Brigg's got the contract, production however was time intensive so minimum prep and then arc welded was the norm. Given the army's ability to destroy things it didn't matter how the joints were made...
