1077 Starcraft windshield seal for a rest? Where can I get one or any alternatives?

[Randyme]

I`m restoring a 1977 Starcraft 18ft. aluminum boat and found the new "T" Bolts on EBAY thanks to this forum, but I also need to figure out what I`m gonna do for a new gasket for the whole windshield. My windshield is a "Taylor Made" 5 piece with the number 514862 next to the name "Taylor Made". The old gasket looks to be only about 1/2 inch wide and thin black plastic/rubber but brittle and breaks easily when I removed it. It covers a slot under the slots for the T BOLTS. Greatly appreciate some info please. Thanks...Randy

Not exactly a Mercury outboard problem Randy, so I will move this over to the Boat Topics (not engine) forum.

You might be able to find a usable trim piece here. Lots of stuff to search.

Try in the Starcraft forum, I'm sure someone has a source.

You could look at automotive weatherstripping, too.
