Good question, Steve. I remember small rear windows in convertibles, but (pics) here are a few pictures from the era:

I think the small window was a Chrysler standard.

Steve, these came with the large window, which were prone to discolor, crumple and crack......

Many owners replaced the large window with the smaller glass window, which provided a limited but clearer view.

I prefer the smaller window and that black Chrysler is a beaut too.

I like the blue one best. 🙂

Really, though, it is gorgeous. But so is the Bentley.
