<VV> One for the nerds

[Hugo Miller]

I am in the process of respraying my 1964 convertible. Currently 
working on the front hood (I shall shortly be able to announce whether 
it has holes for the lettering!). But for now I'm working on the 
underside. The 'brace' panel underneath is sort of like an 'X' shape, 
leaving triangular sections of the upper panel exposed to view. All of 
the triangles on my car are seam-sealed against the upper panel, except 
for the front one. Is that an intentional omission? Or should I seal it 
before I paint it?
