It's flat glass - any glass shop worth going to should take care of you.
But beyond that, If you are putting that much engine in AND you want to tow with it you might want to be thinking a little farther ahead than 1937 technology. Otherwise forget the glass, you'll just be wearing it...

No, it's not a '31. It's a '37-up D-series. Not even close to the same truck...

With that much motor you will definately need to upgrade the front suspension too,I still have the original type suspension in my 37 Chevy p/u and even with a six its a little iffy.
