Looks like it might be from SafeLite. I ran an 89 CV wagon through the estimator for zip code 40003 and it came back with $259. Not sure what year wagon you have though. Assuming this the is rear window on the wagon end, and not the rear door window.
These are highly engineered precision vehicles, the first step in diagnosing the problem is to strike the suspected offending part sharply and repeatedly with a blunt object, then re-test.
As of 1.5 years ago, they were available but very low stock and expensive as heck for glass installers to get.
I ended up getting mine from WagonMan for a more reasonable price. He can also advise you on a method of removing the glass without drilling the rivets to remove the bracket.

The rear door glass is the same as a sedan, except for the fixed window, that is wagon only. If you can't find any good used glass locally to you, I have it. WagonMan VEIGHTPETE@GMAIL.COM
just got off the phone with safelite 275 for rear quarter window 25.00 for doing it at my place. Said they were a limited supply of them. So going to cost a bit over 300.00 and will be here Thursday afternoon. Feared these were possibly unobtainium.
That wagon I cut the floor out of may still be in Detroit (Ryan's Pick-a-Part, but their website inventory is always wrong). It had both rear side windows when I last saw it.
Logistics of moving glass around get kind of challenging though, would you be trying to get it from there? I had been tempted to get those and the tailgate glass as spares for mine, easy enough to put them up in the attic and forget about them.
I am in the middle of KY now. Was hoping to get to mich over thanksgiving but my girl fried had a lot of stuff going on as here sister is passing. Hope to get up there over Xmass. Might not get there then as the ass holes in this city took my sons kids away with no proof of any wrong doing a year and a half ago. Citys broke its how they make money. In fact ky is one of the worst states for this. But if some one up there comes up with one let me know.
The aforementioned wagon is gone, but there's a new one. Good glass all around. I didn't realize it glues in like a windshield or I'd have walked out of there today with two rear side windows...
My intent is to buy those windows. If you then decide you want to buy them from me, the markup is going to be minimal (cover my costs), and as Derek said above he may be able to proxy (although I live closer to you than the junkyard is as the crow flies, I do not live in your actual country, which presents logistics issues).
