don't forget the seam sealer on the back ides of the patch panels.
Seam sealer is on the list. Also, need to seal the plates I welded in the cab corners to seal of the cab corner pockets. I created kind of an awkward overlap that I need to deal with. While undercoating the cab with U-Pol's RAPTOR (2 part) bed linger, I am toying with the idea of using the bed liner on the firewall and inner fenders. It is rated for 185 degrees F. What do you think about that?

...and then there is the roof dilemma. New roof is $450 plus the labor to replace. May have to beat on it a bit, create a shaped screed/applicator and sculpt a new plastic filler roof much like the last guy did until such a time permits that I can replace it. All existing holes have been welded closed.
