well the deal may have fallen through... he says he has someone willing to pick them up today. if the person doesn't show or contact by noon I get them for $250 including shipping which is the lowest price I've been quoted yet.

he will put them in PVC with caps to ship.

Make sure the leetle angle pieces are included. I fink the parts for the new and improved plastic trim are bigger due to the material thickness.

Yea youll need the elbow peices by the windsheild. The stainless rails are much thinner then the plastic ones.

Here isa pic of the size difference. The cap i have on is the one that was on our plastic rails. as you can the plastic rails are much thicker.. So when you buy stainless make sure you get 6 peices.. 4 rails and the 2 elbows

the deal feel through and I guess someone picked them up. I still need them but I guess they'll have to take a back seat until a deal pops up again.

I am definitely going to do that. to be completely honest though my bank account is getting kind of strained. I am getting a used engine because my current engine is starting to act up and its time for a rebuild. I discovered last night that my windshield gasket is leaking now so that's a safelite $250 windshield replacement on top of the engine swap..... of course I purchased all the parts to rebuild my window tracks and window channels and then all this happened.... so basically my bank account is weeping right now.

do you still have the larger elbow chrome piece shown in this pic? I am in need of one for the driver side. I have a replacement someone gave me but its the smaller size so it doesn't fit properly.

I still have all the drip trim. I’m not going to be using them on my 87. I like a clean look for the drip rails. They’re not 100% perfect.

could you take a pic of them and send them to me. if they aren't the plastic rails and are in fact the stainless I would be interested.
