The El Camino has a full-framed door, so the door seal goes all the way around the top of the door and seats against the roof rail when the door is closed. The entire seal is glued to the door.
On a coupe or convertible door there is no frame around the top of the glass, so the weatherstrip has to be glued to the body. There is a roof rail weatherstrip that gets glued to the body of the car (or the convertible top), as well as a door seal that goes around the bottom & sides of the door. For the coupe, there is also a quarter window weatherstrip for between the front & back windows, a glass run channel for the a-pillar, window felts (where the glass comes up through the door), and vent window seals if applicable. For the sedan/wagon, there are glass run channels for around the top & sides of all 4 windows, window felts (where the glass comes up through the door), and vent window seals if applicable.

Dumb question maybe but my 69 has it glued to the door. I always thought my 68 had it glued to the cab.
