    I am trying to remove the trim below the windows on a 55 Plymouth, (some may call it the belt trim ) and am having a little trouble; has anyone here ever done it. I could use some pointers. Thanks

    The moldings slip into grooves in the weatherstripping, and a lower molding on the windshield and back window are held down with molding clips. The nuts for these clips are easy to get to in the trunk, but the ones for the windshield are easiest to get to when the dash and heater box on the firewall are removed. Your 55 year old rubber is probably stiff and brittle, so the weatherstripping probably doesn't want to let go. Chip it away and buy a new one from steelerubber.com
