v butt w/s gasket

[papastoyss]

I have to reinstall the windshield in my 47 ford coupe after paint. The only gasket I can come up with has to be cut to length and glued together at the joint. Drake lists a ready made gasket but no longer carries it . Is there anything better than 3m weatherstrip adhesive to hold the ends together? I'm sure many of you  have seen poorly cut & joined gaskets & they look like #$&^%@#.Thanks!!

I have been cutting the gasket very carefully, and gluing it with super glue.

Works for me too...You need a Super sharp razor blade to get a straight --clean cut.....

I bought a gasket from Midwest Early Ford, cut the center piece out
and v-butt. Installed in my '48. Worked perfect, no leaks.

If you dealt with Carpenter you would get a single piece that you cut to the length you need so there's only one seam. It's the same molding as stock just no center
