  • leaking ragtop

    Hi,
    I just aquired a 94 Z28 convertible and was wondering what to do about the water pouring in on me when it rains. It is coming in where the door windows try to touch the weatherstripping on the top. Should I replace the weatherstripping or is there an adjustment that can be made to the window track inside the door?

    If the weatherstripping is not decomposing or rotting and still had a good feel to it, try adjusting the windows.

            Thanks! I will consider raising the top the next time it rains!!!!

            Seriously, I can see daylight between the glass and the top so I will start with the window adjustment. Thanks for all the help and for sending me to that site - there's lots of good stuff there.

              Can you post some pics of your car? I'd like to see another 94 ragtop.

                I haven't taken any yet and the PO painted some horrendous stripes from one end to the other - I will get some to you though.
                Thanks again,
