Had to discribe this one, when the roof is down just behind the drivers seat in the rear quater panel where the roof bolts in.
If you look down there i have about a pint or so of water that i have to keep sucking out.
Checked and cleared both drains, Any ideas?

I have had this and it was the roof drains, are you sure you cleared them properly or they haven't become blocked again?
We used hot water (to soften the mud/debris) a flexible rod and a garage air line. The air line did make all the difference, I was lucky I had access to this as I did the job at a friend's repair garage.
 
What a s**t idea idea mite be a little bit lucky then that the motor side is dry for the moment anyway.
Looks like its a roof off job to do it right then :headbang:
I bet 5 years from now these will be rotting in the sills worse than a british layland car did in the 70,s !
