I am cleaning up the inside of my cab and was wondering if I should seal the seam in the photo with seam sealer? Thanks for any and all advice.

What do you mean by "cleaning it up", are you going to strip it and repaint? Then I definitely would.

That's a way clean cab for Ohio.

I am doing a complete restoration.It didn't look like there was any sealer in there,but it seems to me that there should be.I know it has never been apart as I bought it from the original owner,a guy I have known for over 40 years.
