Default 1934 Cabriolet Rear Window

I'm searching for a correct rear window frame unit for my 34 Cabriolet. Macs have a couple of larger, squarer ones but I'm looking for the correct 'letter-slot' that measures approx. 5 x 24 inches. Any suggestions as to who might stock one?

Might look at "The Filling Station" catalog on page 149-150. They show a rectangle frame in there but NO measurement but you could call and see!!!

Believe me JR48, it took us 3 top/interior guys (Finally a 4th) and most of 5 years to get a "Correctly" done size and style German back window.

In the mid 1970's I needed one and it took at least a yr then to find one.7X21 is '37,38 Cabriolet.There is a 7X24 on EBAY,$750.

I'd look for one and modify a repro to work in the interim as long as it has dimensions that can be cut down for correct size. This was the only one I could find that is close.

Was your car Canadian production or US?

Cutting one down affects the location of the screw attachment spacing especially on the sides.Gotta be good fabricator to make it look right.

Early ford store in Ohio found mine just a few months ago. Stainless outer and chrome inside. I have since found an original at the Monroe swap meet in Seattle wa. So they are out there. No it’s not for sale. Try placing an ad in the wanted section. I’m looking for the trim piece that goes on the inside of the windshield frame at the top, mine is missing.
