My local auto-glass shop can order one for $400. Their book doesn't show anything for a G-10 so at first glance they said no but then the said they had a listing for a G-20 which is the same.

So I have waited about a month for my windshield gasket from Obsolete Chevy Parts and still on back order. They said it could take up to 6 months hate I had to cancel and spend more money. I went with restoration specialties for $85 in stock and on it's way!!!

A quick confirmation that the CR Laurence (aka CRL) AS1216 with the AS937 locking strip work damn well, and that it is a ridiculously tight fit.
Roughly 40 feet of weatherstripping was needed to do the 2 small, 2 long, and the 2 rear doors on my 90" van. Cost wise, may as well get a roll of 50 feet, most places sell it as such anyways.
I used the *Lisle 47000 Windshield Locking Strip Tool* as the CRL tool was out of stock at the local shop. It definitely did the job and without it or another tool as such you are more or less SOL. Built pretty strong too to boot!
