Is it just the vent window or the larger roll up window you need? May have the larger window and will check condition if that is the one you require. Think that is the one with a chrome trim around the glass. Have a loose vent window as well as a complete driver vent window and frame assembly (once broken but expertly repaired). Both glass in these vents as I remember are bubbled at the bottom (early de-lamination in progress). Can check that as well. Have a front bumper but short of checking may need chrome. May have slight ding down low (curb hit?) as I recall. No bat wing but may have a master window switch pig tail, will have to look. No rear Eldo bumper ends. Clay/Lexi

I have rear bumper ends, in a terrible shape. When I restored my '56 Biarritz, I bought a pair which was ready to install. I don't have the smaller "covers". If interested, I can do pictures.

As an after thought should the replacement glass be EZ-Eye or clear? Clay/Lexi

Depends on what the car was ordered with.

e-z-e eye was an option in cars, but the Eldorado might have been standard, or the buyer opted for clear.

Yes. If the poster replies hopefully what I have here matches the other glass in his car, (he didn't say what his car has). It would look odd to see mis-matched glass in this car. I think all my parts glass is EZ Eye. Clay/Lexi
