I know in 68.. on the Camaros they used a plastic strip in the gutter of the drip rail.....My car had them,and I've been lucky enough to have seen a few others....Very tough pieces to find today. Most broke due to the heat and went sailing down the road....... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

69 Camaro's don't have this problem as the vinyl top ends
about an inch offset to the inside of the drip rail. A
separate trim piece covers the edges all around. This
feature is the only reason I am planning to put my vinyl
top back on some day.

Bob:
The non-padded top is available from The Paddock. Very correct. The rain gutter retainers pre-66 were stainless steel strips - not the mylar/chrome strip used in '67 and up.
