fusor makes nice seam sealers, you should be able to get any of them at your local body shop supply stores. But be prepared to shell out some coin, they can run up to $75 a tube.

I used body filler on mine.  Its fully welded though.  If yours is not fully welded I would seem seal it.  I wouldn't use "Bondo"  brand filler though.  Its very hard to sand and shrinks like crazy.  If your going to use a filler use Rage Gold or Rage Gold Extreme.
