Found a damaged bowfront on the side of the road, but I'm not sure what size it is and my geometry is a little rusty. The measurements for the flat sides are 10"x20"x24" and its about 14.5" from the back to the farthest point out on the curve. Anybody know just from the footprint what size it is or know the formula to figure it out? Also while I'm looking for the glass thickness requirements for the side panel thats broken anybody willing to shorten my quest and throw the correct number out that would be great.

As far as replacing the glass I would just measure the thickness of the existing glass and get that. Congrats on the find

Awesome thanks. 27g. I was hoping someone would just know offhand the required glass thickness so I could get price ideas before going through the trouble of taking the glass out and measuring it. We'll see though.
Can't you see the thickness of the back glass by looking from the side? If not, heres a general guideline:
