Here comes a detailed pic of one of the above shown Packards. It seems to show suspended armor plates. Am I right in thinking that the plates moveable or removeable?

It's really hard to tell, but it does look like some sort of shielding in the 'down' position. I just wonder how it interacts with the actual window? Does the actual window roll down? do they just manually lift and fasten the shields when unhappy comrades surround the car shouting capitalist slogans or unhappy capitalists surround the car shouting communist slogans? Hmmm ... makes one wonder. I've seen extremely thick windows used, but not a separate shield.
Maybe it's just a 'blackout screen' for privacy?
