Hi
         The "Split" goes to the outside of the car , apply a bead of
sealant (semi liquid butyl )
such as PTI (protective treatments inc.) E-714 inside the weatherstrip grove
that goes onto the "fence" (pinchweld lip around the windshield opening).
Work the windshield in slowly ,
as Gary said "no screwdrivers" ...if possible obtain a few 1/8" x 5/8" x 6"
fibre sticks and smooth the end to a soft point. Use the fibre sticks to
"work" the windshield and backlite into the weatherstrip. Once seated in the
weather strip "lock" the weatherstrip by closing the "split",there is a tool
for this but with two fibre sticks (one to open the split and the other to
"chase" the locking lip and push it down into the gap as you run around the
perimeter of  the windshield or backlite). This is easy to show a person but
hard to describe!!!
You can use a generous dish soap solution or use ru-glide (tire bead
lubricant) to ease windshield installation and locking of the weatherstrip.
Wash away all residue & air dry the perimeter of the windshield and backlite
at the glass weatherstrip junction, run a small bead of  3M "window weld"
liquid sealant around the perimeter of the glass (the window weld applicator
has a cute little nozzle just for this)
and it will never leak. Done lots '57 to '66 models  just like this with no
complaints!

On the gasket- does the part that has the split go on the outside or inside
of the car??? What is the purpose of the split??

Thanks,
Scott

Don't rush and don't get tempted to use a screwdriver to push on the
gasket or the window glass during the process when the glass is going
in. Screwdrivers and glass are natural enemys, and the glass always
looses!
