'63 valiant 4 door /6 cruiser questions.

thanks for the help and suggestions so far guys.

Frank, I ordered the schumaker pivot seals as they were indeed another casualty of time. and by cowl (fresh air) seals you mean these? as you can see by the surrounding rust there is probably an issue there. but from my understanding of these vents other than those seals they are constantly open to the elements anyway aren't they? Isn't the only closure they receive the doors facing the seats?
