Standard Fordor Rear Window Curtain
I was just browsing Marco Tahtaras website and read that all Fordors had rear window curtains. I'm assuming this is true since it's from Marco but I was always under the impression that the curtain was only a feature on Deluxe models. If I'm wrong I'd love to put one in my 165-C to help with night driving glare. Can anyone verify this?

Re: Standard Fordor Rear Window Curtain
Per the "Restoration Guidelines & Judging Standards", 2016 revisions, Area 12, page 13:
"All closed passenger vehicles (except soft top models) had a curtain at the rear window. Town Sedans and Victorias also had curtains at the quarter window until March 1931. Standard models had curtains of plain cloth, while the curtains of deluxe models were a diamond pattern silk-type fabric (criss-cross pattern after March 1931)." |

Re: Standard Fordor Rear Window Curtain
Concerning the before March 31 diamond pattern shade, I have had a parts wanted post for the wood tassel drop used on that shade with no response. The later criss-cross shade had a pull tab. The reproduction shades do not have the correct drop tassel. Does anyone have a wooden tassel I can use as a pattern for reproduction?
