"white/pinkish" seam seal between panels (68 NJ)
« on: February 11, 2025, 12:04:01 PM »
Hi Guys
spending TIME here , searching and comparing photos/info!!!! 

Have read about the "ribbon seal" (Bob) used and attaching a photo of WIDE
piece in inner lower quarter of fastback.
BUT I'm questioning if same was used "between panels" (quarter to rocker )  OR IF that was the style WIPED with a thinner rag to smooth ??

I don't think it was used between panels, but due to the self-leveling nature, it flowed into open seams.  I've mainly found that type sealer in drip rails, cowl edges and a-pillar to side cowl seams.

Thanks Charles,
I figured they didn't PUT between (to interfer with welds) but "seems" (no pun intended) it was much thinner and seaped back.  Would like to use a similar/cream PINKISH tint material but not sure if that color is the result of 50+ years of age.
