Re: Quarter lights

Does somebody have a picture off what sort of connection (How it connected to the rest of the door so that it could swivel to be opened) on the quarter lights of a 1952 car MM. If any pictures it will greatly help. Also would like to see the original quarter light latch.

Regards

ORIGINAL SPECKS

Hi all, Can anybody help?
1) I need to know how the quarter glass of a 1952 MM was connected to the door. If any body has a picture it would be really helpful.
2) Was the front grill of a 1952 MM a separate piece or was it a part of the metal of the front of the car.

Thanks in advance
