<p>A gutter structure for a vehicle body furnished with a roof panel, a roof edge rail, and a door sash, includes a gutter channel, a molding, and a clip. The channel extends along the edge of the roof panel and is constructed integrally with the roof panel. The channel consists of a bottom wall, inner and outer side walls extending from the opposite sides of the bottom wall. The inner side wall is connected at its upper end to the edge of the roof panel. The channel is fixed to the roof edge rail at its bottom wall. The molding extends along the channel in order to cover the channel in such a manner as to permit water on the roof panel to enter the channel. The molding has an outer surface which forms a smooth convex contour in conjunction with outer surfaces of the roof panel and the door sash when the vehicle door is closed. The molding is mounted on the clip, which is attached to the channel to secure the molding in place.</p> |
