Default Water leak

My 67 has to sit outside. I leaks water that puddles up in the front floorboards. It seems to almost drip down onto them in some places. Are there typical areas that are common to these models I should check first? Maybe a windshield reseal would be necessary.

I was hoping to maybe just recaulk and area and fix the problem, but I'm guessing it's not that easy.

Old cars like to leak, it's probably coming in from the cowl vent area.
For many reasons, more than just that leak, you should put a waterproof car cover on it.
Other damage that the weather can do to the car could end up costing you a lot more than a cover will.

Is there a specific area or way to fix the cowl leak area?

You need to first climb inside car and try and see where water is coming from
