It is good to know that it has been done. Now, is there any concern about metal fatigue? Does the metal structure change at all with duration at a particular temperature?

Let's say that there is Model A #1 and Model A #2. Both of these vehicles are identical in every way. Model A #1 goes on trips that total 24 hours and let's say 1200 miles. Model A #2 goes on a 24 hour, 1200 mile trip. After their respect 1200 mile jaunts, will they again be identical? Could the babbit in #2 be affected in any way by this continual use trip?
