my drip rails are gone/

[speedshftr]

i cut the rails off and instead of just rounding it over ,i had a line moulded into it close to the edge.it really looks great in my opinion.
question is about the chrome weatherstrip channel that gets screwed to the body itself.now the drip rails are gone .what is the correct way to have them installed?do they get trimmed?painted black?or can they be ditched and a special weaterstrip be used?
thank you

No trimming necessary. The trim isnt as tall as the weatherstrip or the flange that is on the interior side of the top (Where the pinch moulding goes that covers the Headliners attachment....Just paint them black, they fit right under. Like this.

The flange seen in the pic is the flange that accept the pinch mouling... it is actually hidden by weatherstrip...

Robert,

Very nice. I'd like to do the same to my '67. I think it will look great with your seamless glass kit. Can you provide more detail on how you did this, maybe some more pics of the work in progress (if you have any).

Thanks again!
