Hey guys,
I got a 1980 Pinto where the hatch will not seal at the top, and water leaks in.
When I bought the car it did not have a hatch gasket, so I bought a generic one. Well, it didn't seem to leak at the time but didn't mess with the car much either. Well, I had a small mishap and closed the hatch on a wrench which slightly bent it.
I got it straight from what I could tell but noticed water leaked in. I look inside the car and there is a slight gap, but also noticed the gasket doesn't really stick inside the metal and has no compression at all when the hatch is closed.
Any suggestions on a hatch gasket that will work or what could be adjusted?
The hatch gasket on the car now is from a 3 door focus and it DOES NOT work.
