There was at least one (that I know of) 1957 dodge D501 sedan
that had (2) power windows installed in it.
Dodge loaded up most of the 102 D501's that were scheduled/budgeted
to have been built, in order to make them attractive to buyers.
Some had tinted sun visors and rear window defrosters on them (and,
power windows).
The 1957 IBM cards are COMPLETELY different in overall layout from the
1956 IBM's.

Maybe they reused the '56 card for early 57s? Maybe it was proposed,
cards printed, then never implemented ?
I use parts book as my reference. No part number for a gang-of-two,
just gang-of-four.

Au contraire...
Unless you don't believe your eyes, on a 57 Dodge
IBM Build card.

Front door only power window switches were not available after '56.
Starting in '57 only 4-door setups were available.

Front-only power windows continued into the late 50's (and beyond?)
to accommodate 2 door sedan "Club Coupes" with fixed rear windows
and the 2-door Suburban wagons with non roll-down back-seat windows.

Not all that strange in 1956. Power windows were pretty much found

the higher priced cars at the time and any power windows on a lowly

were a tad on the rare side.
But since all the magic stuff to do them were in the corporate parts
bins
why not spread them around and make a few extra dollars. It was
easier to
get the buyer of the more popular, mid-size cars to pop for half a
set than
it was to get them to buy a whole set; at least that was the logic
behind
it. Overall I don't know how well it played out as I do not
believe the
front only option lasted all that long. But some did go for the half
sets as
your car and attest to.

Our 55 Chrysler convert has the same set up and has the double
switch bezel.
Sure it will be the same one. Seems really strange to have only
front
windows powered.
Will send pic later hopefully
