The adventure continues.........There was (is) a strip if packing(?) between the rear inner fenders and the frame. Does anyone on this great list know what to use there? Thanks, Tom TC 2850, disassembled [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Originally it was felt to collect water and insure rust would develop in this area. I used an automotive caulking available at most automotive stores. Bob [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
