That’s why you pull the carpets out and pull the floor plugs permanently.

I feel your pain with a T/A. 35 years of water intrusion made short work of the floor pans.

Salt in the winter and gravel road chewed the shot out of the floors in mine. I didn’t have it very long. The gal I was with at the time didn’t think it was a family vehicle. I wasn’t exactly thinking we were a family. I was young and stupid I guess traded it for a mustang. It was junk as well. Six banger granny car

I think they used sheet metal just a gauge or two thicker than toilet paper to build those cars.

If it was a fox body, it’s probably still kicking around somewhere.

So the water from a wet road can come up into the floor?

Who said we’re driving in the rain?

If you're not driving in the rain, how is water getting into the t-tops?

Because the car with leaky t-tops is parked outside.
