Even the big cars had their problems. My 61 bubble top was showing rust at the bottom corners of the rear class. When I washed it rusty water would run out of those corners while I was drying the car. Fortunate;y it was not running into the trunk (yet). I pulled the glass and sand blasted repainted the outer channel.
And I found that the factory expected the rubber seal to leak some into the package tray area. To keep the water from being noticed there was a gutter under the glass on the inside that drained down just in front of the rear wheel. All steel gutter no rubber tube. I suppose that was why the rocker in front of the wheel rusted.
