Water Leaked into Your Speedy !

I now carry and use a Sham Wow type faux chamois. The ones that I have came from West Germany. The things are great to absorb water from the carpet areas. I use a fire hose nozzle to clean the top and tonneau cover (rinse process). I leave them fold on the water logged area over night. Squeeze out the next morning the next morning and repeat as necessary.

I now carry a couple in my Go Bag.

"Absorb water from the carpet areas"

Aaron--do a search here and see all the tips for waterproofing your car---it IS possible to have a waterproof Speedster!

Have a great time in Asheville!

I imagine that his car, like mine leaks around the windows, and possibly the wiper shafts, but not the floor. Those can be addressed, and are almost completely resolved on mine. When I get the new top on I should be able to stop traveling with a stack of "just in case" towels.

5/16 hole in the rear corner of both floor pans ~

Pull the plug and the water will disappear.

What's a floor pan? I have a Beck. It IS a bathtub on a tube frame :)

What's "rain"? (heh, heh)

Michael, that rubber stopper idea is hilarious!

Have you ever washed your top and tonneau getting ready to waterproof both? I use 303 water proofing and their cleaner. To make sure that the cleaner is totally rinsed away...I employ the use of a fire hose nozzle! We all know that water enters under the tonneau at the dash and sides. Now, we all know that the "stick-in" windows leak like a sieve!

Becks never leaks from the Fiberglas down to the road!!!

I use the Sham Wow things to absorb the water ...leave on the carpets overnight, wring out, carpet dry!
