I am continuing the body work on the 67 Firebird.

I've stripped to bare metal on the exterior and have 2 coats of SPI epoxy primer. There has been a few paint jobs on the car so it is a little hard to tell where all the seam sealer is.

I want to strip out all the seam sealer spray with epoxy and re-seal so I dont get cracks or gaps after the new paint job as I dont trust whever is in those gaps right now, old sealer and some layers of old primer/paint.

Anyway, Where is all the seam sealer on the outside of a 67 F-body? Tail light panel, section between rear window and trunk lid, under trunklid and tailpan, drip rails, etc....

Thanks for the help

Oh perfect, that rocks. I watched a lot of their bodywork videos and thought they might have something on seam sealer.
