Radford / Wood & Pickett window identety

[JC_T_ONE]

Hi all, I look for the car that Radford/W&P took the quarter windows from, to use on their coachbuilt mini conversions? they are not Innocenti - BMC 11/1300 - Australien mini - I know this becourse the very first coachbuilt mini (the Sellers famues Hooper built car) is built around 1962, and have these type of windows, so it must be some British made luxury car thats made before 62,(the crome on mine are still as new). I have seen these little curvy handles before, just cant remember where? here are some pictures https://www.stochholm-borresen.dk/w-p.htm you can click on each photo to enlarge them, I hope some people in here have the knowledge to spot the make? as I really would like to buy new rubber seals for my windows. Thanks for looking.

It's saying Morris Minor to me...... Looking for pictures to either confirm or reject that theory.

Thanks Steve, I have looked at Minors too, but these was not the same, but the Minor had a looong production run, so maybe a older model? late 40ies/early50ies? I only had acces to 60ies cars.

Clearly Triplex glass, but the latch system is puzzling.

Yes, that's what threw me for a loop..... It's in a most unusual location.

I sent an e-mail to someone who might be able to help.

Stay tuned.

I certanly will I have been checking Aston Martin DB 2/4 - but cant find one good shot anywhere on the web, to confirm/support this? I found a half decent one and it could be it, but its hard to see? I then tried a AM forum but no answer? atleast they could say yes or no?
Hoopers did Coachbuild on Astons, so it could be the one?


I put my trust in you Steve. Thanks from JC

Here are some pics from a 1955 Aston Martin DB2/4 MkII.

Thanks alot for that but those are not the ones, its easier to see on a good shot like these. Maybe the seal is the same ? on mine it sits in a pyramid shaped groove(triangular with the top point cut off) and the bit that comes up has a lip to both sides, and it dont have special shape for L or R , I would imagine it was sold from a roll, and cut of to lenght.

can anyone get a picture of the rubber seal for this window?
