Glass dimensions

My truck is a 53-3100 3 window. I have convinced an American glass manufacturer to make acoustic glass for my truck. I was put in touch with an executive at the corporation that likes hotrods. That seems to be the key with this sort of thing. He hooked me up with one of their plants. Does anyone know of any working drawings of the glass? I really didn't want to take the glass out yet. I know it's been in there for 40 years but don't know if it's original or not. I know the wind wings were poorly replaced by me 40 years ago when I bought it. This stuff is going to be pricey and I want to get it right. Thank you for your time.

Re: Glass dimensions

Call around to old-line glass shops in your area. My local glass shop has all the old classic flat glass patterns from Model Ts up. The proprietor actually owns an AD truck.
