Default 1969 camaro convertible rain gutter Removal

It's been a while since I took apart a 1st gen convertible. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to get an original rain gutter out without cutting it? They must have been more flexible 50 years ago when they were installed, or else they were installed before the hinge supports were in place.

Any help would be appreciated.

What I remember is to start from one end and remove with a slight twisting. But yup, plastic is old and very brittle and you will likely break it. Get car out in the sun to warm it up might help. luck!
