Molding Identification Needed

I've got these two pieces of stainless that I'm pretty sure are the 2 vinyl top trim pieces for 70-72 fastback Cutlass but not 100% sure. the odd part is that one end is open and the other end has a slight angle and is closed like a terminating piece but I know there is a corner piece for each end. Both pieces also have a slight bow on one end and measure 28". Just looking for confirmation on what these really are. Thanks.

I checked my trim and I didn't find anything the length of your trim piece. I have drip rail trim that has the ends your describing but they are only a bit over 19" each. Maybe your trim is from a larger Olds vehicle?

Not sure but thanks for checking ...so what is the correct length for the vinyl top pieces on a 70-72 Cutlass?

If one end is closed, it is very likely for the '72 Cutlass Supreme. That trim piece ended at the bottom of the drip rail molding right behind the quarter glass, where the S had a chromed pot metal V-ish shaped piece that was inserted into the end of the C pillar piece.

I tried to copy & paste pix below but my skills are lacking in this area.....
