If they did it correctly, convertible or hardtop glass won't fit - in 1:1, they're about 1-1/2" shorter than sedan, El Camino and wagon windshields. You might try the glass from a Ghostbusters' Ambulance - you can always trim the height down a little to fit, but all GM full-sized cars during that period generally used the same cowl/ windshields.

The AMT version or the Polar Lights version? I think the Polar Lights version is a little smaller.
Isn't there an AMT kit of a Pontiac SD that's a 2 dr. post instead of a hardtop? That windshield might work.

I'm not familiar with the wagon you have but, if all else fails, there's a clear plastic available for model airplanes. It's designed to be heat formed with a blow drier. Maybe you can form it over your old windshield and have enough extra. Or form it over a bigger one and trim it down.
