Cab seams, fill 'em or leave 'em

If there is no major reason to fill the seams like rust etc. leave them alone.
The seams make a great place to change color if you have to repaint for any reason. Sooner or later you will have a ding or two and need to fix the paint. The seam will help hide the color miss match even a really great paint shop has trouble matching paint exactly. I do admit that filled seams and shaved body lines look cool. My vote is leave the seams.

Everybody has rough interior seams. But some are probably worse than others. These were crude work trucks and there was little to no thought put toward Lexus-like fit and finish. And they were certainly never intended to last 60 years. If you have the desire to make it better, go for it.
