sealing compound
68Zproject:
Did the factory use the grey thin ropes that I always called dum dum, for sealing the door water shields and the air vents in the kick panel? Or did they use black in some places, grey in others etc?
Big_Al:
My '69 has grey on the door water shields, can't say about the kick panels.

The compound I have seen on Kick panels had a tan appearance. This was on two vehicles both 68 with AC. Other smay be able to confirm or disprov ethis. I believe that neither of these vehicles had the panles out previously. This is the only part I have seen Tan on however.
Stingr69:
It was very close to the gray 3M Dum Dum but it had a string in it, presumably to help with handling the stuff. You can use the 3M strip caulk in a box to be very close to original minus the string. Plumbers putty works well too. :)

Oregonjam:
This is what I use and was also recommended on another thread.
