The Ford Barn

This is a set of window frames that came from a truck load of parts I bought from an estate sale. They look like some I have seen on a 32 five window coupe. They are approx. 14 3/4" high by 25 1/2" long at the bottom. Will the 5 window interchange with the fordor ? Any help ??? Thanks Fordbarn

They are either for '32 standard (5-window) and sport coupes or a Fordor, but the coupe and Fordor mouldings are slightly different dimensionally. Unfortunately, I'm away from my stuff so I cannot confirm which they are. They appear to be the later version with three screw holes in the forward vertical portion of the moulding (the early version had five screw holes).

Those are for a 5 window, the four doors are approx 1 inch taller at the rear.

They are definitely 5W as deuce5wndw has said. The easiest spotting feature is at the top, the Fordor garnish moulding has a more pronounced arc that matches the shape of it's window opening. Look at side views of both cars and the difference is apparent.
