Hi Anthony,
In recent years I've been quite involved in weatherstrip manufacture. If
you have a sliver of the original seal which you are able to scan (with a ruler
alongside to ensure scale) or send to me, I will see what's available. I have
recently had new seals manufactured for the early Spitfire hardtop, while I've
found that the seals for some aftermarket fibreglass hardtops are readily
available through my own suppliers, it's just a matter of identifying them.
If needs be, I can get a production run of a custom seal done with an order
for 100 metres (325 ft), but shipping such a quantity overseas would not be
very economical - probably cheaper to get the 1000 ft done locally!
Cheers,
Bill.
