Wing windows

I need two wing windows to put in a 1950 wagon. Also window regulators.

Crosleys do not have true wing windows. The 50 had none it was one large piece of glass. 51-52 had fake wing windows that were fixed closed. Crosley went to the two piece window because of problems rolling up the large one piece glass window. Most commercial and standard models still had sliding windows. Since it is most not all I don’t know if the roll up windows were optional on the standard models or they just got swapped some time in the last 70 years.

Thanks for the info Jim. Have an early 1950 cd and just want to put in roll up windows. If the wind wing doesn’t open that that fine.

Are your doors made for roll up windows ?

Actually I am going to build a woody body and doors. I will make the doors to fit the wing windows and the roll up windows.

Wouldn't it be easier to but a pair of roll up window doors that was too rusty to use as metal doors on a car?  Then cut away the outer panels and attach inner structure with window regulators, hinges, latch, etc. to your wood?
