Help wanted [Mark V Saloon]

Hi guys. Like I´ve said before, I´ve been restoring my car, a Mark V Saloon 1950. So far, I have come across the following problems:

Woodwork Refinishing
1) I don´t know how the superior pieces of the window frames are supposed to look, since they are missing.
2) The wooden frame encircling the sky window is also missing.

Upholstery
1) I don´t have any pictures or schematics on the details of the leather door pockets. All I know is that they are supposed to have zip fasteners.
2) Apparently there should be two leather flaps functioning as sun protectors up in the front window. Do you know how these “flaps” are supposed to be?

Engine
1) What is and what is the function of this part marked in the attached picture?

Any pictures of any of these parts I mentioned above will be very appreciated. Thanks everybody.

Hi JBvalle, I think what you have identified is refered to as one of the Radiator steady rods. Check on Ebay for that model car being sold and probably a good number of the items you mentioned will be shown to show case the car being auctioned.There are other sources too.---Fwiw---Keoke
