You may end up getting the channels that the main side glasses sit in re-made, chances are if your's have rusted, then those you find in a scrap door will probably be the same. I'm sure any engineering co. will be able to make something up, if you can provide a pattern or diagram. Stuff I thought I'd struggle with on the Dodge was re-made by a local (to me) firm, and didn't cost the earth either.

I'm not sure about the quarterlights though, do they not turn up on ebay ever? otherwise its a trawl around the autojumbles (is there still a Ford Spares day held every year?)

I hang out with Hot Rod guys, some who have or have had MkII Consuls - I'll e-mail them today and see what's what.

Only down-side is, I don't remember a Hi-line, but the windows, etc may be the same.

If anything positive comes back I'll post something into this thread.
