How do you remove this stuff?
Hey, all. Have started to paint my 'ol '73 F100 all by myself and got to the chrome drip rails that go over the doors and down the rear of the doors (one piece...not on the door but around the door-you know what I mean). Well, for the life of me I can't see how these things come off... I don't see any screws or clips or nothin'. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

Usually drip rail mouldings just hook over the top and press over the bottom of the drip rail. Not positive on that ford truck, but mustangs ect are like that. To remove you use a tool for the purpose or many use a bottle opener to get off the lip on the bottom to remove,working down the moulding. Be carefull not to kink or bend. If the car gets painted and too much paint on the drip rail, can be tight fit and hard to get on. It should snap back on with by hooking over lip and roll over the bottom with a little pressure from your palm, working your way down the moulding, making sure where the curves are are lined up.
