72 LT1 removable hard top renovation question

[Fred H.]

In the process of completing the renovation of our removable hard top, and seeking advice on procuring the seal at the front edge of the hard top where it mates with the top of the windshield frame. I've researched the cast of Corvette aftermarket sellers without any luck. Perhaps Steel Rubber offers something, but I seeking advise on information regarding the shape / cross section in order to see if they offer something close.

Fred I think most vendors sell Corvette Rubber Co. w/stripping so look for the best price and ask who is the mfg.
