I have a 26 T that I will be disassembling to strip it of lacquer paint. What I want to know is can I put the car back together without putting the welting between the body parts?
Thank you Gary :confused:

Or use a urethane seam sealer-this avoids having an open crevice that'll hold moisture but will make removal of the fenders a PITA. Another option would be to apply a self adhesive gasket strip to the body then bolt the fenders on, two sided adhesive tape would also work.

You might want to search around at auto and truck parts stores for a universal seal/weatherstrip, the stuff is available in different widths and thicknesses and comes on a roll to be cut to lengths. A closed cell foam would be best and won't hold any moisture, you'll want it fairly thin so it compresses.
