The only thing that comes to mind is to get some profile gauges close to what you want and head to the junkyard. Same with the side glass. I'm thinking a pickup windshield might be kind of close once it's cut to size. Pretty flat.

Regardless, I'd probably build the car around the glass you can find instead of having it custom made after the body is built. I read some articles in Street Rodder years ago when they actually had article that were not pure advertisements. Seems like the go to guy was named Timo in Finland and the price was 10K years and years ago. SEEMS like I recall he moved to California and opened a business.
