Truth in Advertising - Water flows through the rocker panel! Not
necessarily out the back, just through! In California, we just remove all the plugs
and flaps front and rear. I usually power-wash the rockers out when I get a
car, and every once in a while after. My race car has the leaf-blocker that
Clark mentions. It works fine. - Seth

Bill Hubbell is correct. They all rust out from junk clogging up the tiny
vents. What I did on some of my late models is to hole saw a 1.5" hole in
the bottom of the rocker panel under the front fender to duplicate the
1960-64 cars with their stamped holes. At least you can fish a bent coat
hanger in that hole and pull out the leaves and seeds that fall into the
windshield vent area. A better idea yet would be to remove the vent panel
in front of the windshield and glue some window screen on the bottom side
to
keep the junk out in the first place!
