Default Wind Wings

I picked up several boxes of parts today. Included were these wind wings. Anybody know what they fit?

They might fit closed car wind wing frames? I don't know about those notches. Photo of open and closed car wind wings.

I’ve never seen notches in wind wing glass. Maybe not Model A !

I have a set with the notches, and they are for closed cars. The notches fit into a feature in the frames, and it appears they prevent the glass from falling out.

Will these work on a coupe?
Does anyone sell the frames?
Do the frames require drilling the doors?
