Ground strap location on RH inner fender - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

This subject came up before. The consensus was the strap screwed onto the hole near the front inside corner of the RH skirt (see pic for reference).

Although the RH fenders on both my 71 & 72 402 with A/C have that screw hole, I found the ground straps per the images below. What are the chances neither are supposed to be at the same location? Perhaps the hole (per images) were used for something else, and both done wrong?........Who knows.

Anyone else have ground straps in the location per the pics? What kind of truck? Why might there be two different locations?
