Re: Welcome to new member - 1964 Chrysler 300



Dodger provided good info. Here are a few more thoughts. 

Weatherstrip: Check the vendor's page.  http://1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/restoration-sources.html Gary Goers is listed there to try.

Leak: possible leaky windshield gasket, bad wiper blade seals or rust through under windshield / cowl.... Have someone run a hose on the windshield and crawl under the dash with a spotlight to see where the water is coming in.

Seat belts: there are tips on http://www.1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/techstuff.html

Plug wires should not touch the exhaust. Check to see the wire holders are correct. 

Ask http://www.qualitywires.com/Qualitywires/Home.html perhaps?

Thanks,
Gary H.
