Appears to be a special piece of weatherstrip that is fastened to body by two screws and the upper end tucks under the front window moulding on lt and rt sides. I can see where it belongs on my car. Fills a void there. I'll see if I can scan the page out of the manual and send it later. Thanks for reply...

Ace, digging thru catalogs and found the part I need at CC. Their part # is 633605. I'm sure other jobbers have it also. Big parts are easy to find.Guess I was looking with tired eyes . Car should be painted and on the road by May. Thanks again.
