Ah ok.

Thanks!

Neil

I've found "GOOP" to be a great adhesive for some things. Sure fixed
up the front grille real nice. (looks ok ONLY at a running gallop)

So what's the deal with the strip on the front gutter along windshield?

Does it actually do something?

I had found a couple on a parts van recently......but there aren't any
on mine....yet.

Neil.
