How would you guys go about this?

In Washington the law does not require a windshield in a vehicle. It does require that you have eye protection. If it was me I would put on the goggles and drive it. Once bought a Toyota pick up in Portland (45 miles south of me). It had been next to a house that caught fire. When the fire department hit it with water the windshield was destroyed. Pulled the glass out and drove it home on I-5. Just go slow and don't tailgate.
