As I recall, the drip rail screws are accessed from beneath the weather stripping.

To remove the drip rails you need to carefully pry the weatherstripping out of the channel along the top and the front A-pillar; then remove the phillips-head screws and remove the channel itself. It's been a while, but I *think* the drip rail itself is held on with more screws.
They were only put on the hardtop cars, and sometime along the production run they were eliminated from the cars - my 84 Z28 had them, but my 89 Formula does not. Yet.
