Hi RAMVA!
It's been a while since I find a problem on the bug, and it looks like always is a PO's fault. This time is with the floorpans. The PO did a body off resto (70 bug) and replaced both floorpans with new (and pretty good) ones. The problem is, aparently he welded the panels but did not seam sealed it. Here it's been raining for about 10 days and the streets are flooded on some places (about 8 inches deep). Well, last week I had to drive through one of those ponds and the bug filled with water. So, I removed the carpets, the jute padding and everything on the floors and brushed away all the superficial rust and paint (some undercoating too). Then I let everything dry completely and went out to get into the water to see where it is leaking. I can see the water getting in where the body meets the chassis right behind the pedal cluster, a little there on the passenger side and where the floorpans meet the tunnel.
Is there an easy way to block that leak without removing the body? Can I do it myself?
