Have you tried California Classic Boats? They have a listing for windshield brackets for "post-war utilities".
Hang on to your wallet; price is $5K+. Have you learned what the BOAT acronym stands for?

The $5K listing that was described as windshield brackets for "post-war" utilities" is much more than brackets. It is a complete windshield frame. Try making one.

Hi Wolfgang here, new to this forum. I have a 1963 Holiday and looking for a Canadian supplier for the rubber gasket that slips into the windshield channel. The glass is stamped Taylor Glass S82 or S52. Any leads you could provide would be very much appreciated!
