mine leaks a little, but Im not concerned. Have driven it in the rain a number of times now. Went for a loooooong drive yesterday......the noise from the bloody side pipes 
got to me way more than the leaks from the rain.

Len,
Pretty serious about selling. Been 4 years and its time.
I have my eye on a new C6 - Monterey red - Z51 2LT.
It will be interesting to see what ProTeam says.
If you know of anyone, please let me know.
Car is worth every cent of the 35K, its a 50K car in the mext 3-4 years.

Len, don't feel bad, most of us don't want to admit the fact that odds are overwhelming that the windshield pinch weld frame has holes rusted thru to the inner frame. I would take almost every bet that any C3 68 thru.....lets say 76 either has had the windshield frame re-fabricated or needs it. If water is leaking from the header or down around the body mounts under the door hinge frame, it's rust.... There may be a few exceptions where the car has never seen water....but darn few.
I have four C3's and all have either been fixed or will be. I have just completed installing a new windshield on Project RamJet....which I knew would also involve some frame repair.....It did
