1960-66 Roof drip rail drain holes??
Yeah--what an obscure topic title right??
Well-I had to repair some hokey cutouts in the rear of my drip rail and I only assumed there were some small holes that one of the PO's had hoped to "enlarge" by cutting off the drip rail as it was fashioned. Is there anyone who has more drain holes than the ones just above the A-pillar and above the first side window on their panel/carryall/suburban?? Here are pictures of what I've got-- A-Pillar "drain" (barely) Slot for drainage just atop the first side window Before and after of my repaired area. I plan on mimicking the slot as seen in the previous picture right at the turned up angle area. (unless there was actually a previous hole that someone can show to have been there) I'm planning to add another slot-drain at the rear where I made the repair. (this truck will likely see rain..)

you can see on the patina where the rear drain , although it has no hole, just spilled over...
