Windshield rubber seal

Good Sunday morning everyone! I’m looking for a used rubber Bugeye windshield seal for a cut down frame and it will be used to get accurate measurements. Most anything will do.
Thanks, Rut
 
Even better would be to trace the bottom half of a windshield.

So Rut are you trying to build a chipped windshield. Bugsy’s windshield is off the car and I can get what you need. Give me some more info and derail. PM or email me. Windshield is at my sisters about 15m away from here.

Jim,
This is similar to what I’m trying to do and I’m making a plexiglass/plastic windshield using the bottom half of the windshield frame and the uprights. I’ve got everything cut to height and a mock up cardboard windshield, but the rubber takes up space and I want to plan for that. I’ll shoot you an email with mailing info.
Thanks, Rut

Very nice color on the MGA. I'll be over at my sisters if not today likely tomorrow as I need to grab my upholstery clips out of her garage. I'll try and get your measurements Rut.
