Hi Michael,
=20
No experience with the urethane, but regarding original type rubber seal =
I have had great success with mine in the BT7. Rich Chrysler installed =
mine about 18 (??) years ago. I am quite positive he sourced it from =
Spaenaur in Kitchener. I seem to remember doing it with him and him =
remarking that there is not a lot of working time with it as the oil =
works on the seal quite quickly and there are all the fussy corner =
pieces in the Healy frame to get right. Anyhow, it got done and not a =
problem since.

Best, Mirek

Subject: [Healeys] Windshield glass installation
=20
The windshield glass on all Big Healeys prior to the BJ7 was "set" into =
the frame using a product called Everseal.
This is apparently an unvulcanized rubber which, when coated with engine =
oil swells and is meant to keep the glass tight in the frame.
I haven't had the best of luck with this stuff and have found that after =
a few years it tends to dry out and the glass comes loose in the frame, =
particularly on quarter windows as in BJ8's and MGB's.
I'm contemplating using urethane glass setting adhesive on my BN2 =
windshield.
Anyone have experience with this?
