California top? windows maybe see photo's please

I just got these and they are factory made with the original separate windows, they look to be the sides for a California top, any ideas if this is what they are? Bob

Not a california top, they look like after market side curtains to use with the ford top.

Appears to be the Calif. style sliding glass side curtains set for T touring. These used wood frame members to secure the glass, which slid down to provide ventilation.
