Drip rail/bright rail molding Base 70 compared to R/T & 500

I was looking through the charger registry site at the old litterature and there is a statement related to the base vs R/T and 500 bright drip rail molding that I do not completely understand.
It states:
Bright Drip-Rail Molding.
The Bright drip-rail molding, standard on Charger R/T and Charger 500 is retained in Charger. But it ends at the base of the C-pillar instad of countinuing into the belt molding as in the Charger R/T and Charger 500.
My question. When I look at my car, which is a base model hard top, the drip molding wraps around and it looks like it meets up with the belt molding. So, does anyone have a pic of an R/T or 500 that I might compare. Unfortunately, I do not have my car here right now, so I cannot post a pic. I will do that when I get the car back from the shop.
Thanks,
James

what it sounds like to me , something along the lines of the 68/69 roadrunner , has/have stainless trim on drip rails , but no stainless trip on top of doors & rear quarters ,
cant say ive ever noticed , thought all chargers had stainless belt mouldings
but the XH was the base model
the 70 charger registry guys will know more about this

Mine has drip rail and belt molding on the fender tag so I know it was ordered with them. What puzzles me is the strange wording in the description I quoted about the c pillar.
I must be reading something wrong, or there is another configuration. Eventually, I will figure it out. Thanks for the response.

perhaps it was an option on a XH just like the clock
with the clock being standard along with belt mouldings on a 68 -69
heres a picture of mine ,
thought all 68 -70 chargers were the same
