I don't think they ever came with one. The last one I had installed, they didn't use one. No room. Instead the gap was left open so the windshield looked like it was floating there. Looked great.

Are you asking about a gasket that goes between the body and the frame? If so, it's common on Roadster builds to cut up a bicycle inner-tube to make a gasket for that.

I was talking about what looked to me was a rubber surround around the windshield and the body, But i see now the pictures of the coupe with just the windshield by itself.

I used the following:
Flexline Windshield Auto Glass Universal Molding Flexible Trim Rubber 19mm 15 FT UM1913BR

It came out decent:

I usually have my glass installer put whatever one he thinks will work out OK. Sometimes depending on the fit you cannot use one. We had to grind almost a 1/4" from the bottom of the windshield to make it fit correctly.

My installer just glued in it was too tight for trim. No two coupes are alike
