Check your antenna wiring where it goes through the body. Missing or loose grommet will allow water in. Have to pull the charcoal canister to see it.

Between the heater and the windshield wiper motor in the area just behind the engine firewall there is a hole about the size of a quarter facing to the front of the car. This goes to the inside. There is also one on the passangers side. These are not the ones that drain into the engine compartment. All should be cleaned so water off the windshield can drain into the engine compartment. Hope this helps.

Cracked firewall on drivers side.

Check for cracks where the clutch pedal/ brake pedal connect to firewall.

Common.

if above fails, follow the hood hinge up below the windshield, and check for rust pin holes in the cowling area. some removal of what used to be rubberized undercoating type stuff may be required, but its probably hard as a rock and will chip right off....
