Question 29 Fordor rear window question

On my 29 Fordor Leatherback (yes, I bought it) the rear windows only roll down about 3/4 of the way. They both seem to stop in the exact same spot. Is this correct or is something stuck? Thanks

I believe that is correct. Remember you are going up against the rear 'wheel well'.

Will not go down all the way due to the way the rear door is made to accommodate the rear wheel well as 130artdeco has stated. Got to remember the door frame is wood and is about 3" thick in the area above the wheel well arc and that limits the amount of travel for the window plus a rubber stop about 3/8" thick on top of the wood. Have a picture of the inside of the door from a 1928 Fordor attached
