rrc. cold feet.y???

2 door rrc...

at any decent speed cold air is somehow getting in and making my feet jolly cold!!
its only down in the foot well..the heater works (up to a fashion anyeay..its 40years old!)..i have had a good look and can't find any where the air is getting in.(abit dangerous to go groping in the wells while driving,so done at stand still)..just replaced both the door seals!.no holes i can find there is no rust so bu holes i meanwhere there should be grommet etc..there is no water ingress atall..(floors bone dry.)
only thing i can find is you cant shut off the cold vent completly..alittle still comes out the vents when switched off..but i dont see that being the reason as the vents are not near feet!!

any ideas??

How well does yer tranny tunnel fit after all that cutting and shutting?

what about the steering column hole and the pedal box?

the kicker panel getting air coming in via the gap between inner and outer wing?

You may find its the heater box with ram air style leak

maybe...and the air somehow getting deflected in the heater downwards...possible,dont have a spare heater to rip apart to see how made...not keen on ripping mine out to descover its not that..exploded diagram anyone..(2 door heater)

I have one here on my 79 you can take out mate, saves me the job of stripping it and you get to have a look how its fitted

does that mean there was one part of your 72 you never took apart?
