Tom, any chance you have a front windshield gasket for sale for a 1965 330GT 2+2? Anyone know where one might be found?

Yes, I have an email into them. They only show the GTC gasket on their website but am hoping they might have one and the site is just not current. Thanks for the recommendation. Kevin

I would normally recommend http://www.cicognaniguarnizioni.it/ (they make most of the seals that you see at re-originals and other places), but they seem to be offline at the moment for inventory.

Try Lee at T. Rutlands 1-800-638-1444. I paid $285 for a front windsheild gasket in April last year. Their service is great and they stand behind their products.

Installation is tricky. Make sure to leave the gasket out in the sun so it gets good and soft. Mount the gasket to the glass and install the stainless trim. Use dishwashing detergent sparingly and a coil of thin rope inside to set the gasket onto the frame of the car. This is best done by somebody with experience. There is little margin for error and many ways to do it wrong. Hope this helps.

Yep, you were correct, T. Rutland's has it and now one is coming my way. I am going to have the windshield installed by an expert. The new windshield is original OEM and has been in the crate for many, many years. I certainly would not want to crack that one!

Thanks guys. The advice on this site has been quite supportive and helpful.
