rain inside the car???

[Hercules86]

hi i pruchased a mint condition 300sd a while back.. the original owner had it for close to 30 years since its a 1980 and he only drove it about 5000 miles a year. i have brought the car to the wash numerous times with no water ever coming inside the car. lately in ny its been raining the past couple days and when i came to my car this morning the driver rear seat and passenger rear seat floor pans were full with water. About 2inch on driver rear seat side and 1/2 inch on passenger rear seat side. i drilled two drain holes in the back corners of the floor panel and the water immedietely evactuated.. Since then there has been little water buildup but there is still water coming into the car alitte at a time. If i look at the seat belt pillars toward the bottom of the floor the carpet is only wet in that little spot on both sides. Is that where the water is originating from? The rubber door seals are dryed out and cracked somewhat on both sides. is that the problem? because in the drivers seat floor pan and passenger side floor pan theres no water at all. The back rear windsheild gets foggy somewhat also when it raining when the cars parked? does this mean the rubber seals all need to be replaced?
