How much is the HP of the victim of Flesh to Stone or Glass Strike?

[Shin Okada]

Both spell does not specify how hard to damage or break those statures. I assume that a medium character tuned into stone is indeed a equivalent of medium sized statue, thus as suggested in DMG P.64, functions as a wide pillar, thus has AC3, hardness of 8 and hp or 900.

As per PHB. Glass has hardness of 1 and 1/15 of hp comparing to stone. So, some medium creature turned into glass statue now has AC3, hardness 1 and hp 60.

Do you think my interpretations are reasonable?

Edit: Or shall I just use the original creature's hp?

I think your interpretation is fair.

I go with AC, Hardness & HP as statue of type.

It can certainly suck to be a statue.... (once shattered a fellow PC by (vigorously) rolling him down a flight of stairs at the basilisk that "stoned" him).

Your interpertation is reasonable, but there's a nifty clause in the Petrified condition:

Petrified: A petrified character has been turned to stone and is considered unconscious. If a petrified character cracks or breaks, but the broken pieces are joined with the body as he returns to flesh, he is unharmed. If the character’s petrified body is incomplete when it returns to flesh, the body is likewise incomplete and there is some amount of permanent hit point loss and/or debilitation.

(Emphasis added)

So while the statue form (either glass or stone) has a particular hardness and HP, if you keep all the pieces and do the "puzzle" before restoring the victim, the victim is unharmed by RAW.

Which raises the interesting question of what happens if you use such spells as Stone Shape on the poor target....

There are no RAW guidelines for that, it's purely a matter of what the DM will allow. I'll allow more than most and I've seen PCs make some entertaining, weird, and downright disturbing uses in my campaigns. Because if you make the changes via Stone Shape when Flesh to Stone is applied they are considered to be part of the revived character's natural shape. Hilarity and discontent ensues.

Plastic surgery goes DnD huh...

Hmm... Stone Shape doesn't do precision work ... Fabricate can't affect creatures (which the victim of Flesh to Stone still is), and they're not natural rock, so technically a Stone to Mud/Dispel Magic pairing can't be used to reshape them, either ... which means crude changes only. Ouch.

... which means you'll need to research a variant of one of them in order to do long-term disguise work. Once done, though, you've got a method by which to turn one person physically into another without a magical aura (well, once the residual magic fades away....).
