I got mine in a junkyard, and paid $5 each w/latches.  I also managed to
get a set of 6.

I will have 2 frames (minus windows/or w/windows & cracked glass) once I
get around to restoring my windows.  These two are kinda "rejects" tho -
a lot of rust on the bottom of the frame.  I have restored windows in this
condition before,  but I had an alterntive this time.

At shows, windows usually go for about $15-$20 in decent condition, and
if they have latches they would be the late ones.  The early spoon latches
are much sought after (myself included - I need all six).  BTW - on the
early spoon latches, one is shorter than the rest - the front cargo door
latch is shorter so it doesn't interfere with the passenger door.
