wet floor

my 93 max has been sitting for about 2 months due to an axel and tie rod problems. I went inside to clean it out the other day and found the carpet under the passenger seat to be soaking wet. It snowed a few times while it has been sitting but i dont see how snow could have gotten in the car and i noticed the carpet being wet last summer after the rain but didnt think much of it. what could be causing this to happen? what part is directly under the passenger seat that could be leaking?

Heater core? Does it smell like antifreeze at all?

that is where the as drain goes in most cars....when it gets clogged the passenger side floor board will get wet from overflow from the clogged drain tube.....pull back your carpet and you should see a tube running down thru the floor board (thats it), make sure that is not clogged.
