1968 ambassador vista window

Sorry guys I have spent hours trying to find out how to replace the vista window. I can't seem to figure out what to do. The window is not oval it is more square. someone vandalized the vista and the pane below it. there is currently no windows on it. I cant seem to see how to get into the frame of the window without taking out the interior lining. Any help here would be great

This is not an easy fix. You will have to take apart the interior lining to get the frame out and finding a replacement is a whole different problem. keep an eye out I have seen them on e-bay.
