I need a new windshield in my '70 Sport Satellite so I can drive it while I work on it. I would like to paint the car in a year or two and was wondering if I can re-use the windshield gasket? The darn things are $170!!

If it is just in awhile you should be able to reuse it. Check around you can get them a lot cheaper than that. I see them on ebay for 79 dollars at more than one place so the vendors will have them cheaper too.

If its not dried out just clean it with some laquer thinner or xylene and reuse it.
