Traveller load space cover and back door glass.

I do not think that travellers were ever produced with a load space cover, does anyone know of a supplier of after market ones please?

Secondly I would like to replace my 1970 traveller rear door glasses, can anyone supply mint used or new ones please?

Regards
Andrewe
