Is it possible to get glass doors for a 1977 Vermont Castings Vigilant stove?
 
I don't think so.
 
Glass panels. My doors currently have removable metal panels, I assume they can be replaced with glass panels?
 
I think so, they are available for the Resolute. Just keep in mind that regular glass won't do it, needs to be the special ceramic glass to withstand the heat.

My Resolute glass gets real dirty even with real dry wood, there is no airwash to keep them clean.
 
easiest may be to go to a specialty glass place and drop off your doors. They'll cut the pieces and install them too! May or may not be cheaper, but definitely easier than drilling broken screws.

Or order the glass from Woodmans Parts Plus. Don't forget to get the stainless clips too.
