These are really great photos as I haven't had the front wings off mine so it's good to see what's below. I am interested to know what's the bit most prone to rot around the windscreen?
My 66 estate leaks on both side and I fear it's down to rot rather than a leaking windscreen and I want to know the specific area to look in so I can narrow down my problem without taking everything apart. |

![]() another two areas will also be effected if you see my first and last photos on #1 post then you will see it rots in the top of door pillars , on the return areas going into the engine bay it has a oblng stroke rectangle panel most have had rot as a result of water getting in but cannot escape so sits in that place which is the internal area of bulkhead ( firewall ) i mentioned when you look up under dash in the corners . hope thats helped but just from a leaky screen all that mess becomes the end result if left to its own devices ![]() i just edited quickly a image to show the return area going into engine bay which my image shows a small area which i need to repair ![]()

also most amazon SIDE COWL PANELS become badly rotted which will let water into the car and give you a wet floor it rots just where it mets the floor pans and carries on rotting until its repaired so carefully lift the carboard side panels out to expose that area and check just under the rubber mats and see how bad if thats the areas its letting in water

Wow... You have a project, and have some great work going on there, and it is nice to see another one get rescued before it was too far gone.. It really makes me appreciate living in the Southern U.S. more.. LOL

Mmmm - crispy. Btw, saw these repair sections (which I hadn't seen previously) the other day & wondered if they were of interest, if not for this project, as those areas look ok:
