Going to do a full repaint, but have never messed with an old Mopar before. I have questions how the trim gets removed as this trim is in excellent shape so I dont want to mess it up removing it. So how does the
1) side trim on the body get removed. Looks like some have screws holding it on
2) Front and rear windsheild trim get removed?
3) How does the drip rail trim get removed? We used to use old style bottle openers on these with other cars but not sure


Here are pictures of the areas Im seeking help on.

thanks in advance!

I need to do this on my 73 fury and I'm wondering what's the best way to remove the trim also
I have not removed the top of the window opening trim as I found it is rivited in place in some spots under the drip rail, so I am planning on leaving it in place for now. The rest of the side trim comes off with a trim removal tool and some phyllips head screws. Its not real hard but patience is a must. The door trim has some screws at each end that are held in place with a nut on the other side. Once that nut is off you can gently pry with a trim removal tool and it pops off
