You can see this one from the highway. Apparently they don't let you go wander the yard these days (covid) but it shows up on google maps. It looks to be in decent shape.

Those two Mopar F Bodies look pretty nice. Usually they’re just rust.

Are these side windows or sunroofs? They have a sunroof lip but only one arm for raising them up. The seller has them advertised as windows, but I wanted to see what you guys thought. He has had them for awhile, I think his price is very high on them.

That's what I thought. I wish I was closer because I would pull the trigger on them for a lot less and keep mine for part sales.

They are sunroofs. I probably installed over 200 of them back in the '70's. I put one in my brand new '75 Econoline. My girlfriend asked if I could put one in her Toyota. Done. My roommate wanted one in his Cutlass. My younger brother helped me do all three. He got the idea that this was easy weekend money. He made flyers and put them on windshields at the mall. Local van shop made me a killer deal for buying multiple sunroofs. Brother and I were doing 6-8 installs every Saturday all summer and spring ( until snow started in NY ) at $100 profit each vehicle. Paid off my loan on the '75 ( $5,300) along with Cragars and other mods.
