Bodywork details

Post by kentishvanman »

Hi,
I have the 'common' hightop rainwater leak and cannot trace where the rain enters. I know where it shows itself and that is
over the door in front n/ s corner. The passenger gets a shower when braking/cornering.
The sealant has been replaced, had 3 coats of paint, almost poured it on, and then been painted with clear grease.
I have just removed and replaced the over cab cupboards and flooring fully expecting to find the usual rust/corrosion and thinking the hightop would have to come off.
Absolutely nothing. Not a spot of rust. As clean as when it left the factory and I could see down to where the hightop sits in the gutter. This is good news but does not solve the problem.
Before I start digging out the sealant on the outside has anyone got photos, or where can I find them, of the bodywork on the inside but without the roof liner. It might help if I can visualize this point.
Thanks.
