Good Morning!

	I have a photo of the rear of 1721 in ({[pat]}) gray with both rear
windows sealed; the left side window was originally hinged for access to
the trolley rope.

	It would  *seem*  to me that this might have been done on an
*as--needed* basis  --  when a car went to the paint shop it might be
converted to sealed window because of rusting.

	Any more detailed info on this?  Was this a common practice of
{([pat]})?  How many other cars had this?
