Body glue???

Hey guys i was woundering where i can get the body panel glue that they used in the factory to put some of our cars to gether at? and what is it called exazctly?

i relocated my battery to the back where the spare tire was at one point. and i used the BMR relocation mount they sell and it bolts to the side there. well anyway ive been gettin a noise and thougth hey it just a plastic panel or the battery mount is lose ill tighten stuff up. well i get backthere today to take care of it and well i moved the batter and notice the a good section of the panel and where the wheel wells are glued together just moving apart and its probably only about a 1/16 gap when it gets shaken.

so if you guys can let me know ill get this fixed and relocate the battery back up front until i can make a mount myself to fit back there nicely with out messing anything up. thanx again in advance.

here is one source called product is called fusor.

not sure what they used at the factory original but this is good stuff for non structrual repairs and patches.

It is actually a seam sealer not a glue. The joints should be spot welded and then sealed.
