1923-1925 Touring Side Curtains - Show me how they attach

Post by jwilliams81 » Thu Jan 18, 2024 10:36 am

Would anyone be able to post some nice pictures to show me how side curtains attach to a Touring car from 1923-1925? I'm pretty new to the hobby and haven't been around them enough to see them in person.

Jarrod,
I will send you pictures of the fasteners where the side curtains attach. These will show the location and the type of fastener on my 23 touring. I believe these are original types.

When it gets a little warmer, i will climb up into the barn loft to see if those tire snow chains are up.

Don,
I will post the pictures, but will probably need someone to help me. Maybe Tim Wrenn will come to the rescue.

I hope you get what you need. The open cars have two clips on each side of the windshield, and they are both different.

I remove a clip on both sides of the windshield frame, so that i could mount rear view mirrors at these locations. I saved them and will include in the pictures.
