Hello all, I just finished up seam sealing my car, 1971 Road Runner, and wanted to be sure I sealed in the right places. In particular, (1) the seams at the top of the rockers, (2) the seams where the quarters attach to the door pillars and (3) the seams where the quarters attach to the trunk gutters. I was going by the 1971-72 body manual when sealing. It looks like these areas received sealer between the joints at the factory before welding, not over the joints after. Is this correct? There should not be any sealer showing in these areas?

This is for a cuda but the same for road runner. Is this image showing sealer under the seams?:

No sealer showing in these images at quarter to sill seam and at rocker seams (unrestored cars):

I do not have any images of the trunk gutters/quarter panel seams. If someone can add them so I can use for reference, that would be great!

Thank you in advance!
 
The workers putting the sealer on did a terrible job! lol! Night shift maybe! I did see sealer on my Charger where the Cowl and firewall come together it is a foam seam sealer! Also it is suppose to have that foam seam sealer where the rear side window stainless Moulding in the C shape of the Moulding otherwise there is an air gap.
