Easy-Peazy. You might consider going with plastic. I bought a piece of hardened Lexan and cut out my own for about $100. Use your old glass for a pattern and cut the plastic with a ban or table saw. (I tried a jig saw and it just made the plastic melt back together). If you use windshield wipers, disregard and a little more care is needed on Lexan when cleaning. Very mild soapy water followed by plain water and micro fiber cloths do the trick without leaving swirls and tiny scratches.

I have seen "polyglass" windshields advertised that are suitable for using wipers and normal cleaning. That's what I'll go with on my 289 car, when the time comes. My 2¢
