Leave the rain gutters or shave them!?
 

I picked up a pretty clean 69 Camaro a couple months ago & finally getting around to stripping it down. I'm going to flush fit the front & back glass, but can't decide if the gutters should go too. Does anyone have pics of this done on a finished car? Opinions welcomed!

I don't have any pictures...just my opinion to offer. :lol: I personally don't care for the look it gives the car with the drip rails shaved.

i chopped mine off.im using flush mount glass also.i also had the bottom of the window pillars built up so no moulding is needed.

i had mine done 4 yrs ago gives alot cleaner look. mine still have the edge so it looks like they are stillthere but when you get close u can clearly see that they are. but if your car gets wet, watch out, water will run straight on your front seat when u open ur door.

I agree. Leave them on the car. Just my opinion, though.

Thanks for the replies, I saw a 69 with shaved drip rails at SEMA last year, but can't remember how it looked. Anyone have a pic with a car painted?

Do you get Camaro Performers magazine? If so, there's a white 67 Camaro on the centerfold of the April 2010 magazine with shaved drip rails and flush mounted glass.

shave it,it just cleans up the car

I think with the smooth glass the smooth rails would fit just perfect. JR

i think it will "date" the build...

its a 69 camaro.. they had driprails...

shaving them falls in the "lambo door" category imho

also if you plan to drive it its not practical .. and when i look at a car with rails shaved and all seams filled.. i cant help but think the owner is covering rust and just going overboard with bondo...
