You can't seal them up; the water comes out of the air openings, which you want 
to leave open.

What you want to do is to clear out the water drain tubes which you are 
absolutely correct about, except that it doesn't take nearly 40 years for them 
to clog up.

If you want instructions, remind us of your year. BTW, it's VERY important to 
fix this. Nothing will rust out a car quicker than the interior being 
continuously wet.
