The Ford Barn

I am mid way thru a hot rod build in late 50s era look and as I inherited this project I need an answer on a simple question.

Did the 32 vicky have wind up rear passenger windows or were they fixed in place?

I have a really nice steel body and there is no provisions in the steel to allow for window channels or mechanisms.

I spoke to the local engineer who will be registering my vehicle and he has said the the rear windows must open and close to obtain full rego. I live in Australia.

Those side windows do go up and down.Tough to find those parts.Post a pic of that area in your body.

We call those on the side of the body "quarter" windows. The regulators mount to a wood board (reproduced... we handle ones make by Brad Brown). They are the common 4 mount hole style also used on the 1928-30 fordor sedans. Ditto on the bottom channels. We handle those also.
