NOT real unusual. Condensation build up. It can be taken care of by drilling a SMALL hole on the bottom corners of the headlights. You can do this without removing anything. Just drill SMALL hole into each corner on the bottom and watch the water flow out. Remember SMALL drill bit. The smallest size you have that will let the water flow out. Just leave it like that and you will not have the problem again. I have done that on Shadows, Escorts, mini vans, etc. GOOD LUCK

Thanks--I am surprised to learn of the lens/ reflector seal. I did drill a really tiny hole--about 1/16" in diameter. The liquid poured out and I have dried the inside with the low setting on a hair dryer. Love this hi-tech equipment.

I hope I can get a few more K's out of this car----I have removed the 2 bench seats and it's a really handy little pretend panel truck now. Tranny is still a little screwy. Oh, well.

cheers buzzy
