Paul,
My '49 3100 has most of the original stuff intact - fortunately the PO (2nd
owner) had it 30 yrs and was rather kind to this oletruck. Looks to me like
I have some sheet rubber @ 1/8" thick that fits in there; from just behind
the front fender to just behind the door. I have an air gap from where it
stops (behind the door) to the back of the cab.
Hope this helps.
