Likely a piece of dirt stuck in the weatherstripping.

I once had a car that had many vertical "scribes" in the driver's glass. I suspect that the leafblower guy at work was making enough sand airborn to get on the glass.

Happened to me too. A lot of vettes I see have them. I am in the market for some new glass since it's pretty annoying. Anyone know the part number for the side glass?
