Find a cab with a big back window, cut it out and then patch it into your truck.

I would guess you would need to make an oversized rectangular template that is about 2" larger than the big window and use that as a template for both trucks. They make panel clamps to make the job easier than just using a magnet to hold the panels in alignment.

The welding without a lot of distortion is going to be the hardest part.
