Actually, the gasket *and* windshield are easy.  Just last week I took
delivery on both of these items from Centerline (no personal
commercial interest/no implied endorsement/etc., but they do have a
great catalog!).  Uh, and now I'd love to find the trim for a <= '69
GTV.  Matt @ ReOriginals says that he can get the trim, eventually (no
personal commercial interest/no implied endorsement/etc.).  But if
anyone out there has the extra trim bits laying around that they don't
need, let me know!
