    Water in jack compartment 1972

    Easy access to the drain shields with the wheels off. You can see the drain tubes on either side of the vent trays when looking up in the rear compartment area over the wheel well hump, lower or remove the rear window storage tray for access.

    Water in jack compartment 1972

    My '72 had water in the rear compartments when I bought it. The owner had washed it the day before I went to look at it.
