I bought a project car years ago and now I cant remember how the weatherstripping/moulding goes on a 65-66 coupe. Looking for a picture of the trim right around the window/roof line.

THANKS

Here is an old picture...it sits just about the same way it did when I took the picture. Finally got some motivation to work on it...figured out the damn computer wiring harness today though

No pics, but a customer just called and asked about this the other day. The tab that will have the screw will go on the forward par of the car. And if I remember what he asked, and the answer(don't have one here this time to look at), the rubber block starts at the end of the stainless.Hope it helps.

It looks like you removed your gutters. If so can you snap a couple photos of how you finished up on the underside where your weatherstripping is going and did you remove the little pop out detail that is behind the gutter above the door. I hope this makes sense to you. here is a pic of what I am talking about around the door opening.

I'm in the process of replacing my roof and trying to figure out how to finish around the opening. I have a few ideas but would like to look at what others have done. I am worried that my weather stripping is not going to be sufficient to keep out the water especially with out the gutters.

Here's scans of the body assembly manual for what you want.

thanks. I was trying to figure out how to make a drip edge to hide the mouldings a little. I am undecided on trying to remove the little pop out above the door like you did.
