Try junk yards and vintage auto parts swap meets. Ebay and Craig's list are also worth checking.

A good auto glass shop should be able to remove and replace with an after market unit if you can find one that is large enough. I put one in a Nova SS landau and it came out really nice, I used foam between the roof layers.... first time I did this it was a little scary.. but came out fine, mask all off to make the cut and trim covers head liner, fining a used one is also a great idea...
