I was, but I paddled out of it. Seems that that tray-like area at the back of
the engine bay, right where the hood meets the car, can collect copious
amounts of enviro-crap which can dam up the drain holes located at each corner
(if you have a sunroof, these are the ones the tubes pass through on their way
to earth). It may even be such that the water just takes longer to drain than
normal, but this is apparently sufficient to allow it to pool around the
ventilation intake thingie and thence into the right-hand footwell. Lots of
it, too.
I discovered this condition in my '82 about two weeks ago, and it's rained
plenty hard since then, but my interior has remained dry.
