I would expect the usual classic TVR specialists to be able to supply the seals, Adrian Venn, David Gerald, Steve Reid.
The following is my reply to a post (Dec 2013) regarding re-fitting seals.

Managed to almost re-fit the windscreen (new seals) to my 79 Taimar a couple of years ago.
Had to get local fitter to finish the job. He commented it is a difficult job & that my mate & I had done well - just needed to push/shove harder. Roof is surprisingly "floppy" until glass is in place.
Unfortunately all this was done before I read Exactly how to do job (PH post), local fitter used ordinary sealant & after 6 months screen leaked again!!!
So I removed only the chrome trim, scraped out the sealant between screen & seal, re-sealed with good quality silicon sealer & re-fitted the chrome trim; as per Exactly recommendation.
So far, 6 months on, no leaks.
