My car needs a new windshield gasket- best supplier for this?  Best 
to have it professionally installed?  I have not attempted this type 
of repair since I broke the windshield I tried to install on my '57 
English Ford Zodiac back in 1966.

The original white convertible top is a bit tatty.  I'd like to 
either get it repaired or find a top that is identical to what I 
believe is the factory one on the car.  Any suggestions?

Some of the wiring under the bonnet has been redone by others.  I 
believe that the cars had blue tape wrapped around the wiring to 
consolidate the wires where they were bundled together.  Is there a 
source for this tape?

The windlace on the driver's door opening has suffered from some 
wear.  What is a source for this that is like the original?  The 
passenger side is still intact, so would prefer to find matching 
windlace rather than replace both sides.

Thanks for any help you can give me!
