Leonard,

I have spoken to Convertible Top Specialists in Florida and they will have your quarter glass and it won't be cheap.
They purchased the entire stash of Hess & Eisenhardt spares from whoever had the inventory.  They have windows, however you will need to give them detailed measurements of what you need and they are very insistent on that.  Problem is, how do you measure something you don't have because it's broken?

Here is their website:

You can't do a good job of measuring the other side for a mirror image unless you take it out of the car.

Did your window break when you were lowering the top?  The Hess tops were not the best engineered tops, and they have a series of relays and an electronic timer box mounted behind the back seat.  If all is working properly, when you move the top switch to lower the top, the rear quarter windows begin to lower a few seconds before the top moves back.  If this control box is NOT working, as the top begins to lower it binds on the top of the quarter glass and will pop it.

On many cars, this box fails and the owner or a mechanic will "re-engineer" the system, making the top switch connect to the top motor, bypassing the controller, and if you forget to lower the windows first, you have an expensive disaster on your hands.

I don't know if they cut down coupe glass which was a fixed window or had a completely different window custom made.

I have one spare, it's a passenger side, but I am keeping it because i currently have 3 Hess & Eisenhardt Eldo's.

Good luck,

Brian
