I just stopped at a friends place over the weekend. He has a '36 5-window. I looked it over pretty closely, and it seems to have a lot more interior room than a '36 3-window I had about 20 years ago. The reason I sold that car was a lack of interior room. I believe I could live with a 5-window, but the 3-window was just too cramped. Of course, the matter of looks comes in as well.

The bottom line is probably that most folks didn't want to pay extra for a lesspractical car, albeit a better looking one.
