Sac Vintage Ford has them as a clip-on and JCWhitney has it as a stick-on, too.

If memory serves me right (and it's been known to not!) I don't think a chrome drip rail was a custom cab feature...pretty sure that was an aftermarket item. Custom cabs had the stainless moulding around the windshield, the deluxe (outside air) heaters, inside door panels, 2 outside door key locks; not just one on passenger side, the "custom cab" emblem and possibly some other things I can't quite recall...can't seem to find my book that tells all that here in my mess for the moment.

You know, know that you mention it, I don't think 54's had the stainless around the windshields at all...just the 56 Custom cabs.

Any of you guys out there know for sure?
