Inner fender webbing?

Does the front fender get a gasket or webbing between the inner and outer fenders? Is the cowl to fender the only gasket on the front fender?
Thanks for any help.

There was an anti squeak material between the outer and inner front fender. Some people just use the old electrical friction tape. Not the new stuff. I think it is still available at most hardware stores. Good luck with your project.

There was anti-squeak material between the upper/lower fenders and most metal-to-metal body panel joints. There is a gasket on the joint between the front fender and cab. Many choose to use welting between the rear fender and box joint. This was not an original build practice. The welting and gasketing is available from Dennis Carpenter.

I have been cutting pieces of plain old roofing felt to use between the metal to metal joints on my front end assembly, should help with keeping the squeaks down.
