All the usual places sell them (lmc has just the tinted glass for 47-50 trucks for $30..pn38-6135).

Re: 1pc side windows

assume you are working on a 49?
don't know that much about the windows, but don't some years come with a 1 pc window and later years have a vent window? maybe the original one piece glass fits the later years?

Re: 1pc side windows

I think almost all of the major truck trinket vendors LMC, Brothers, Classic and ?? sell stock style glass.
Classic parts has clear, green and gray for the same price. It needs the steel rim around it.

Looking around the net and comparing prices to the quote you got I can see why guys are ordering glass online.

you need the whole track and regulator and window frame of the early windows to convert late doors. member "crossfire" has a project he did this on in the builds section.
