I was loading some wood in my 91 740 wagon and busted the window on the
driver side. That is the rear side window and not the rear door window. Any
clues where can I pick one up?

Look up wrecking yards and start calling around.

You could try these guys too: http://volvo-guys.com/

If they don't have a used one in stock, they could probably get you a
new or used one fairly cheaply.

You can give this a shot:

www.voluparts.com

They are located in Atlanta and I have been using them for 20 years. Not
affiliated with them, just pleased with their service.

I had a fixed rear window broken in my 240 by burglars and
surprisingly Swedish Motors had a used one for $20. They stock some
used parts there and there's a glass shop around the corner that can
put it in for you too.

Cheers,

I have a 89 745 ready to go to the wreckers. Runs good just has a rotting
frame.
Many new parts such as in tank fuel sending unit and 2 sets of ties. You
can have it all for $300
I'm in Hamilton

Boris, check with the poeple up at Cookstown Auto Parts in (yes!)
Cookstown.

Alternate location to try is the auto wrecker on Woodbine north of
Bloomington Sideroad (east side). Take the 404 north and get off at
Elgin Mills Road, go east to the next set of lights (Woodbine in
Victoria Square) and drive north. If you hit Wellington Sideraod,
you've gone too far.

Thanks to all who replied. I got it from Volvo Guys. I decided to replace
it myself. It turned out to be a bigger job than it should have been because
since this window was busted once before, (same way, some people never learn)
The shop that replaced the previous window used the Glass Adhesive From Hell.
Some of it got on to the molding and various clips so that the molding got
somewhat bent out of shape. The remaining adhesive bonded very well to the
frame and although it was still flexible it was very difficult to remove it
all. I bought a tube of the same adhesive and loaded up the caulking gun.
This stuff has the viscosity of warm lead (cold outside) With great effort
ad two caulking guns later I managed to apply it to the frame, glass, myself
and everything in proximity. Cleaned up with acetone. The stuff is called
SikaTack-Drive.
