Would one from a club coupe work, or a sedan?

What do people do for missing back glass?  Does anyone make reproductions?

She's not much to look at right now but I will do my best to restore her to her former glory

The title says it all.  I'm fixing to purchase a rough but savable  1948 D-24 business coupe.  I know where I can find a complete 1948 club coupe that I can use as a donor car and hopefully I will be able to bring it back to life.  Pics to follow soon.

[1948 Dodge bumper]

I am looking at a 48 Dodge business coupe which has no motor, transmission or title. I know where a club coupe is that I can get those from.  I've noticed that on some of the cars the rear bumper says Fluid Drive but this one is blank.  Does that mean this one has a standard transmission?

[my barn find]

I am proud to say I actually found a Desoto in a barn!  I have a 46 Desoto taxi as well as a 47 club coupe.  I had arranged to go look at a Desoto a man was advertising on craigslist but he was calling it a Dodge  I figured I could use it for parts for my taxi or vice versa.  When I went to look at it the guy that I was talking to wasn't home but his dad was there.  I told him I was there to look at the Desoto and he started walking back towards the woods.  Halfway there he started veering towards this block building where I found this.    I quickly asked if he was interested in selling it, he said yes but his son would determine the price.  I had a price set in my head that I would offer him if he took too long to decide but luckily he made me an offer of 2k less than I was going to.  Well arrangements have been made and it will be coming home with me as well as its brother  8)

Can anyone interpret a data plate from a 47 DeSoto coupe for me?
