Primerdimer Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Windshield gaskets with chrome trim, anyone know where to get one? I’m assuming these are complete unobtainium. 3 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 It was an option on the T series, so even more rare.. Windshield set, moulding.(6 piece) # 72810-14900 2 1 Quote Link to comment
mainer311 Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 What's the T series? 2 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 Actually I didn't need to add that. I just checked and the T is pretty much on all 520/521s. Like L521 or PL521 the L only means left hand drive and doesn't really need to be said. So only rare as in a not co common option. 2 Quote Link to comment

I’m assuming these are complete unobtainium. That would be nice considering I have all the other rare pieces. Chrome even if you could get would be a pain in the ass for a rubber with groove. 2 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 I had a 521 and a 510 at the same time. One of them (I think the 510) had a chrome strip that inserted into the rubber after the glass was mounted. The rubber gasket was very floppy without it but easy enough to install the glass. The chrome strip wasn't for show it, it added needed rigidity to the gasket. It was slid in from the sides. I forget it was 44 years ago. 2 Quote Link to comment
mainer311 Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 The Datsun roadster guys are always looking for that windshield trim. Rarer than a hen's tooth. The factory stuff used to fall off, since it was just sort of pinched onto the rubber. 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 That's different. This was slid into channels for stiffness. It was floppy without it. 1 Quote Link to comment
