It is raining. Oh, yea. After the hours and hours and hours and
hours--------->
of rebuilding, repainting, resealing, rescrewing, redoing and re----->
I got leaks. Minor rain showers and short torrential downpours do
nothing, but,
pause a long torrent gives me water where I
don't want it. The moulding where the windshield and side window come
together. The rear panel seal. pause Actually, that is all.
More than enough. When it stops raining I do believe I will mask
over the windows and the door and spray the whole thing with a thick
coating of Armorthane. Voila, no more leaks.
pause I will endeavor to persevere and redo the stupid side
windows again. I am not going to re-remove them, not in a hundred years.
I think I will try to find another solution. Probably not possible,
amazing how fast that hundred years goes. aaarrrggghhh, as Charlie Brown
would say.
No questions: just blowin off steam. In all fairness, it is raining
really hard and has been for about 6 hours now. There, now I feel
better.

That's the choker part. I thought I had this beat. I know what I have to do.
It is just that I thought I had it done. Thanks Arch. Darren

That is the big rubber seal which is sandwiched between the body and the
rear cover which houses the rear window. Darren
