washed my car before action day only to find that my passenger side door was making a very very wet noise. took off the side card and found about 4cm of water had welled up down the bottom of the door. thought i would check the other door while i was at it... sure enough there was water in there, but hardly any. it seems that the drivers side door had drainage holes, while the passenger side did not (but a drill fixed that... thanks dad!)
now im getting really paranoid! my beetle has one piece windows, and the inside of the doors seem to be painted in this weird black rubbery stuff (could be some sort of tar paint?)
questions: obviously i have two different types of doors, did they make doors sans drainage holes at any point in time? also, now that the rust has had its time to lay its feet in my passenger door, is sanding it down and fish oil going to be any good? the rust isnt bad but i dont want it to get any worse!
and last question... can you get seals specially made to fit perfectly, and is this expensive? (and im guessing the answer is yes to the latter...)
its a sinking feeling when you close a door and it sounds like a beach!:cry
