Puddle in the car

Puddle in the car
So I was cleaning out the back of my 81 N/A 2+2, and I moved the panel that hides the spare, to see if there was anything that had fallen back there. Much to my surprise there was a puddle with maybe an inch and a half deep where the spare is. I mopped it up best I could, but I can't figure out how the water got in there. The weatherstripping in the back looks good, and I couldn't see any place where it really would have gotten in. How common is this problem? Are leak-prone areas that I should look for?

Thanks guys! So I checked the weatherstripping around the hatch and window again, and they looked fine. However, I checked the rear quarter windows, and they did look like there had been some water leakage there. I'm going to try to build up the weatherstripping with some gasket builder.

and its not in the back back area right? the area behind the spare, with my car it had a good amount of water build up in there when i first got, it freaked me out too when i blindly reached my hand in there for the first time. It was because the metal around the side light was warped from a collision, which caused it to not seal, making a lot of water leak in, luckily i caught it before it started to rust,
