97 SC with leaky trunk

I recently found out that there is a leak somewhere in the back end of my
97 SC2. I bought the car new about 6 and a half years ago, but since I've
never had a flat tire I've had no reason to check the spare lately.
In preparation for an upcoming trip I thought I'd play it safe and make
sure the spare was properly inflated and was surprised to find a large puddle
of water in the bottom of the wheel well. (It has been a pretty wet spring and
summer in the northeast, but I didn't think it was that bad.) I don't know
how long this has been going on, but it was long enough that the jack was very
rusty, but still usable.
I have two questions, has anyone else had this problem or does anyone have
an idea where the leak could be coming from?
And secondly, would the easiest way to take care of this be to find the
lowest spot in the wheel well and drill a small hole so that any water that
makes it's way down there runs right out?

Thanks
Scott

 

Ya my 92SC2 leaks like the Titanic!! The first time I found the spear wheel
well was just full of water.
Where the leak is coming from is around the speaker on the right side of the
car, how it's getting
there I have no idea. But I did drill out a small hole in the well, to drain
and water that does collect

 

hi
our 92 leaked buckets in the trunk ,used to fill up the little side well on
the right side of trunk then drain into the spare tire well.
i removed a small rubber plug in the right trunk well and the problem never
came back.
i could never find the leak but i saw that it seemed to be running down what
i think was the rear shock/strut tower below the speaker.

 

If you have a sunroof, the drain lines run down through the rear pillars.
They go through elbows in the upper rearward most part of the trunk and exit
to the outside under the outer body panels. Check to see if these have come
loose.

Same thing here I forgot to add it fills the side wells as well, on the
right side.
Since we are talking about leaking, I have a few more places. Over the door
frame
My shoulders get wet sometimes. And on the pillars just behind the doors, at
the joint
of the two side wall plastic parts. She's just like the titanic.

 

Sunroof she has. I'll jump into the truck and see if I can see that elbow.
