What plant and when? - just in case we can provide more specific information

[C5ZZKGT]

Sorry guys....July 1965 at Dearborn.

Would have been either dark gray or black.  Go with black if you don't know for sure.

Charles, The guys used a gray colored caulk on the front fenders which you might remember.......think I should match that or something completely different?

[CharlesTurner]

Not sure, you might want to try to find some original Unrestored cars close in production to yours to make the best choice.

Hopefully it wasn;t that light gray "NOS" or AMK stuff

Here is the best I can offer from an original Dearborn 65-66 GT car (happens to be a 66)

Hope it helps

I have (had) three 65 and 66 GT Fastbacks all San Jose build and all use the black caulk. Try NPD p/n 903-1 $17.95 for some 3/16 X 60 ft in 12 inch strips. It's made by 3M p/n 051135-08578.

Would and have used the 3m Strip chalking- The original request was for a Dearborn 65

[AU SNK]

I believe that CJ Pony sells the 3m strip caulk

[C5ZZKGT]

Thanks Guys!! Obviously I only need enough to fill the one hole......would anyone have a small amount they'd sell me? otherwise it looks like it comes in 60' rolls...

[CharlesTurner]

Check with a local body shop, they'll probably give you a strip.

[C5ZZKGT]

Ok, thanks Charles.

C5ZZKGT,
Are you going to Silver Springs this Jan?  I'll bring you a foot long piece of black 3M caulking.  You're right, they sell a package with 50' more than you will ever use!!  Let me know, I'll see you there!
