Speaking of that roll down rear window kit:

Turns out that a roll down rear window was an actual factory option, starting in the second half of the '31 build (Ford did not adhere to what we know as model year breaks. Everything was more of a rolling change).

I thought that sounded cool so I purchased a kit.

This was back before the internet, so the instructions were typewritten and you could tell that they were copies made from copies made from copies. In fact, some of the images were illegible, like pictured below.

I couldn't make heads or tails of the instructions. It was one of the two or three times in my mechanical life where I thought "I'm not sure I can figure this out".

In the end, I figured if somebody else could do it I could do it. I threw the instructions away, laid all the pieces out on the floor like a big 3D jigsaw puzzle and figured it out on my own.
