get new weather stripping.

yeah, weatherstripping would help. Sometimes, though the t-tops just have a tendency to leak.

They sell a roll of weatherstriping at advanced that goes over what you all ready have it is round and I think about 10 feet long it is sticky and about a 1/4 inch thick it should stop any leaks unless they are rusted.

replace the seal with new gm stuff, then keep it clean get subframe connectors that weld in

they can be made to not leak, but you have to have the subframe connectors that weld bolt ins flex, apply a thin bead of vaseline and the leak may stop also
