Charlie:
  I'm going from memory here, but aren't the cargo windows just
flat glass on a 72 Travelall?  Any GOOD glass shop can measure
and cut the proper safety glass to fit.  I think they used safety glass
there, or is it just tempered?  Check the other side.  They do it for old
cars
that had nothing but flat glass all the time.  In fact, in Hemmings
Motor news, there are shops that claim to have patterns on file
for everything from 19xx on.  So some shops would not even have to 
measure, they could just use their pattern.  If you need a temporary
fix (it IS winter, after all), you could get a piece of lexan/plexiglass
at the local home improvement house and cut it to fit with a coping
saw or similar.  But I'd get some glass as a long term solution.
