Do 71-74 B bodies have a SS roof rail "gutter" like E bodies?

Can't find any good pictures online to confirm.

If you are talking about the drip rail ss trim. Yes my 73 Charger had it.

Hey Jim
Yes they have drip rails with moldings but not like the E body ones.
As you know E body drip rail moldings actually go under the roof rail channel.
The B body ones don't. They have a thin molding that snaps over the drip rail itself. No seals. Same as the A body and earlier B's
I'll see if I have any pics.

Thanks guys!

Thanks Mark! I always thought 71-4 B bodies have the SS drip rail trim that gets sandwiched between the roof and the galvanized weatherstrip channel like E bodies.

Thanks for clearing that up!

PS We miss you at Carlisle!

There are also different versions, and part numbers, of these roof rail mouldings for with and without vinyl roof.
