WINDSCREEN RUBBERS

As nobody has any screen rubbers to spare, does anyone in Adelaide have one they could provide as a sample to have some manufactured ?
I have found someone in Adelaide that can manufacture me a new screen rubber, but they only have the dimensions (mould) for the late model (67-70) sedan. So if anyone in Adelaide can help with an early sedan/wasp front screen/rubber, that would be REALLY helpful.
I will be ordering a few for myself when I can get them made, if anyone else is interested please let me know.
Thanks
Warren

I am looking for ones for the Wasp Davo, which as far as I understand it will be the same as the early (65) sedans, but different to the GT's.

The was has no chrome strip. I just used a generic rubber from the rubber shop at Brendale Brisbane. Glenn P used 1 out of a Hillman that takes a chrome bead.

I did ask Greg about Liz's Wasp, but he didn't know the part number, which puts me back to square one of needing to get a sample to them. Also, the one I am onto now will be a one piece, no join, moulded corners one. He has the rubber, just needs the shape and size, to be able to manufacture properly.
As for the Hillman one, I don't know what model Hillman, and did it fit without being modified ?

They cut and glue them at the bottom in the middle of the screen. it does not have to be exact length.
