Inner hood frame to hood seal
Did the hoods come from the factory with a sealant between the inner support frame and outside skin? If so, was it just a cushion to take up any gaps for vibration reasons? Or, was it to actually bond the two together? I know they are spot welded together around the edges to hold them together.

The factory would put dollops of bonding adhesive between the bracing and the panel.
This was to help stiffen and prevent oil canning of the panels. It also would dry out over time and in some cases when opening the hood and/or deck lid you might hear chucks rolling around within the brace. 3M carries the gun cartridges of this.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
