I have a 65 mustang and the drip rail on both sides of the car are rusted out. Has anybody replaced one of these before?? I am thinkin about just hacking it off. Is there somebody that "repro's" these? I am not talking about the molding but the metal part that welds in.

I have the exact same problem on mine so some suggestions would be appriciated. I also have some rust in that beam between the windshield and vent window from where i had a windshield leak.
