    I don't recall that mine had the trunk deck seal installed previously, pics of what it looks like? Is there supposed to be trunk deck sealing as well as the small rubber "bumpers" as seen in my second picture above? Thanks!

    1968 Questions on final restoration process

    All, My builder is nearing the end of the restoration for my GT/CS, but he has a couple of questions that I don't know the answers to. The first is what kind of fasteners are used to connect the grill screen with the bumper trim (see first pic). The second is how or what is used to keep...
