I'm slowly, slowly starting to put my Thing back on the road.

Parts are all in, and I've got plans to get it in for proper panel beating soon.

Anyone know where I can get a windshield frame gasket or seal? Mine's toast, and to put in a new front windshield, I'll need to replace it.

See my post here.

The Thing Shop is probably your best bet.

There is a guy on ebay, located in Canada, sells Itlis parts. Windshield rubber is the same and I think I spent 40 bucks.

I paid $60 for mine from The Thing shop. It fits and looks perfect.
