I don't know of anyone in your area, but Sacramento Vintage Ford sells all the glass and I believe they've got one-piece door window kits, too. You can even get it tinted or smoked if that turns you on. IF you do get it locally, I'd recommend ordering tempered glass rather than laminated. The stock glass was laminated and that's what causes all those neat foggy spots and the pretty yellow bubbles that you can't see through. The tempered glass is safer, too. It will shatter into billions of bits in an accident rather than jagged shards.

I just went to my local auto glass shop and had them cut the laminated flat glass - called 'safety sheet' glass. Very reasonable. Added bonus was they cut it to fit as my efforts at making a template wasn't very successful - ended up too large the first time around. It takes a bit of skill to cut the bottom radius cut on the windshield, so some places might shy away from it.
