    Where to find replacement glass/ locks

    Picked this up from a junkyard before I found a black one locally. Is there anyway to replace the inside glass? Just looking to fix it and then flip it as I don't have a chevy and I don't need it. If anyone locally needs it id be happy to offer it up for free though.
