Worth replacing windsheild myself? 140-160 1971

I just bought a '71 142, and it needs a new windsheild. I got a quote of $180 installed from the local glass place. I'm wondering if it's worth the trouble of trying to get a junkyard windshield and installing it myself. I've done a 122 before, but I'm not sure what's involved in a 142.

I'd spend the money without a second thought if it were one of the other cars, but this car isn't in the best shape to begin with, and the windshield would be about a third of the purchase price...

Thanks,
Eric
