    As I continue to disassemble my 69.5 to a bare shell, I have to scratch my head at some things that Ford attached to other things with no apparant screws, clips, glue, nails etc. The chrome drip rail trim is one of these items. How in the heck do you get these things off? I'm learning how to resist the urge to simply pry off 37 year old parts without asking first. Thanks much.

    It seems unreal but I used a small screwdriver to lift the lower edge and used a pair of end type cutter pliers (snap-on) and they worked very well with no damage,some folks use a screwdriver and a hammer.

    Geez, I guess I should have done a search. That sure was well covered before.

    Thanks.:thumbs2:
