You may want to look at the Lebaron-Bonney windshield/top seal.
It's the round windlace looking piece that runs along the backside of the oak header.
A lot depends on the aerodynamics of a particular car, but I find the wind blows rainwater in circles on the flat windshield until it gains enough weight to run down and off to the sides.
I use Lexan for windwings since the stock size ones are overly heavy and in cold weather they tend to work their way out of the clamp and down.
I made a set of stock size - taking the 2" chop into account - Lexan windwings.
They blocked off too much wind to leave em on in the summer, so the size in the pic was chosen after a little trial and error.
The top has real glass, but imo it's too heavy and I should have replaced it with Lexan when I installed the top.C9
