Craig Osborn, where were you able to buy that new chrome strip? I need one for my '82 Quantum TD. The glass installer who installed the new windshield on my Quantum said that chrome strip is what he calls a "lock strip" which is necessary to lock the windshield in place. Mine is in pieces, looks shabby, & I would like to replace it.
As to installing your lock strip, have you tried silicon spray, soapy water? When the installer installed the new glass, he just pushed it in the crease in the windshield gasket. If you were able to find a new windshield gasket, does it have a crease where you can install the lock strip?
