So the sealer was just for moisture, not to keep panels from squeaking?

This car will never see a day of weather or moisture. For one thing, we don't have any weather/moisture here in Southern California! Plus it will be a concours show car. To give a real life example: The car and I both came from Maryland where we'd leave potato chips out for a party and by the end of the party they'd be soggy. Where I am now, you can literally leave chips out for a week and they'd be just as crispy as the day they were bought!

Anyway, I just want it to look like a factory original, but would a concours judge even deduct points for a lack of seam sealer?

If that is the case, I might just do the obvious panels like the cowl and trunk and take my chances with the judge if it won't rattle or squeak without being sealed.
