i was recently in a accident and the car is totalled but i baught it back and the hatch was bent and wont open. So im like what ever, well the hatch is leaking a ton of water into my car and so i buy some of that foam insulation stuff and spray it on the one side. well it didnt work and water is still coming in. so now i just put more of the foam stuff on the top. my question is where else could this water be coming in at. im just baffeled.

I decieded if this doesnt work im going to take the hatch off and make the 240sx into a el 240 camino. and suggestions about doing that too would be great.

put a plastic garbage bags over areas and tape it down. just do it 1/4th at a time. should be easy to figure out it that way ^^;

its not around my tailights, i thought i knew where the leak was but i guess i didnt get it all the way, and if it was at my taillights i would have a pool of water behind my passenger seat. because the watter is getting on the backseat's seat belts and comming down into the seat and then to the floor.

i kinda like the el camino look, because im gonna have like 2 weeks of the car not be able to be driven bc its totalled but im buying the car back and waiting to get the salavged title back from the insurance company thing.
