 Yeah they look like rain gutters...I have no clue what they are called. My truck doesnt have them and water leaks in the cab.

The aftermarket drip rail moldings are junk if you ask me and if you don't wont to drill holes in your cab you could always install a set of these http://www.classictruck.com/product/1973_1987_Window_vent_shades_WVS73/1973-80_Trucks_Window_Moulding_Trim_and_Frames_Window_Vent_Shades
