Water in floor pans

[will.koch]

Alright, I've got the new 302 running great, and now I'm just being picky.. I've got water almost pouring into the floor pan in a bad rain storm on both sides. Is there an obvious / easy fix for this, or is this simply something to get used to? It does not seem to be leaking from the driver/passenger vents, and definitely not from the windshield, but somewhere in between. I've been thinking somewhere in the "lower-the-windshield" hinge (sorry for my lack of technical vocabulary), someone long ago may have left out a seal or something.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for everything, guys.

My 67 leaks a bit where the door meets the frame, right in the corner of the windshield, and window brace. There is a rubber nubbin missing from the door molding, so there is a big gap - maybe the same thing happened to your door molding....

is it coming from the front of the floor or in through the sides are can you tell. after it dries are there parts that are more wet than others?

I forgot to mention, it is a '67. The water seems to be coming in from the side, close to where the door, window and front quarter panel meet. Actually, it could be anywhere along the front seem of the door and just running down, and dripping into the back of the dash. Is a new weatherstip kit a guarantee fix for this, or is this something I'll be guaranteed to be dealing with for the life of the Bronco?

Thanks for your help.

Pop the hood and check the cowl. They always leak there.

it's always good to check all possibilities before fixing something you are not sure will help. I would check the cowl and then if you have the money for a new weatherstripping kit you might as well go for it. i can't think of anything else it could be.
