Default water leak -- HELP!

Hello

I'm currently restoring a '87 Dodge W-150 LE full-size pickup which was in pretty good shap to begin with.

The problem I'm having is that whenever I wash the truck or when it gets rained on, I get a water leak into the cab. The water collects on both the driver and passenger side floor, near the cowl.

I can see the water leaking from the cowl area but don't know what the fix is.

Before I removed the interior & saw the water coming from the cowl area, I had replaced both the front windshield, rear slider, and both door gaskets. I also mucked out behind the front fenders from inside the cab -- NO LUCK.

WHAT'S THE FIX FOR THIS?? I've got a lot of money into the truck and don't want to abort the restoration at this point. It's a great rig other that the leak!

Thanks

one thing you can try if its a small leak around a metal seam, you cout use some simple water sealant, or a two part epoxy like qwick steel or jb weld for a simple ghetto look
