Fact is the post asks if electric windows could not be optioned. They could not. Could a dealer fit stuff for you if you knew them well enough? Probably.
You can't option something that does not exist. There was not Kingswood power windows in the parts bin. Only Statesman.
Yeah, I guess there's "factory option" and "dealer fitted option". The factory would often pass the customers that were in the "Too hard basket" to a dealer that was happy to build a custom with parts they had in stock.

There were some dealers that would build you anything just to clinch the sale.

The original owner would know what happened, but once the car has been through a few owners and history has blurred the facts, the same car then appears to be "factory optioned" with strange things.

In some cases the real truth will never be known because people that were there at the time are no longer around to help with facts.

Great topic, this one....
