  You don't want caulking.  There's stuff called "body seam sealer" that 
body shop supply houses sell.  Sands like bondo when fully cured, tough 
and flexible, MUCH better than caulking plus it takes paint color 
correctly.
  My  biggest concern about simply resealing the body seams, would be 
where the water is coming from and will it pool up somewhere if you 
stop it from running out?
