Location: New Hampshire USA		Have a pair of stainless roof mouldings that came with a 57 Plymouth 2dr hardtop. These are not the typical roof moulings, they go over the drip rails. Are these factory or aftermarket or do they go to a different car/

Location: York County, PA		These roof mouldings were factory on higher end models. A photo may not help to identify which model they go to. They are prone to being twisted when taken off a car improperly, so be careful when handling.

But I don't know on what model or when they did use the separate drip rail / roof rail or this combo moulding ...

I have only seen those moldings once, in this picture I posted.

This looks like the wide roof rail moulding used on 59 Dodge CRL, and possibly 58 as well.
