water on floor boards

[Ktbregal]

Well after the first time I left it out in the rain there was water on both front floor boards. I seam sealed and painted the front of the body. I also replaced gasket on the evaporator box. It has been a complete body off restoration. Any ideas?

I've found every time I had a leak it was window or door seals. Especially prevalent with T Tops. The water runs down the inside of the A pillar trim to the floor.

time to pull some panels and find a friend to man the garden hose. Mine's never leaked a drop even with FUBARed window seals. (mind is a hardtop though)

My T-Type had a leak on the pass. side. Turned out to be a small hole down under the cowl vent. Got it patched and haven't had any leakage since.

I had no leak for 15 years with T tops when the car was new, no wind noise either but I spent 2 days adjusting everything. It's been a different story since the car was repainted, too lazy to do the adjustments and now the seals need to be replaced anyway.

Last leak I had on my pass side floor was a small crack in the ac box where the water collects as it drains out..... Took me forever to find it an I clear rtv'd it up. On the driver side it was the emergency brake cable grommet....had to pull the wiring bulkhead connector to access and used clear rtv to seal that as well. As earl mentioned water hose and carpet pulled back, underdash panels pulled, head under dash with flashlight, etc
