The AC condensate drain line is a simple thin piece of rubber hose. Replace 
it if it's developed a crack. And if you do this and still have a leak, 
know the heater/AC box had plumbers putty (also known as acky-pucky) inside to 
plug it's seams and holes. Over 42 years the stuff may have pulled away from 
a surface so the box is now leaking condensate down the outside of the box 
onto other surfaces. This is less easy to fix and may involve removing the 
dash, then the heater/AC box and splitting it open to fix. Good luck with the 
hose. Good luck- J Deryke
