Very nice, love the very early 99s! Looks like it has AC as well.
I believe that I bought the u-channel for the side windows from Restoration Specialties in PA: https://www.restorationspecialties.com/Windshield-Rear-Window-Glass-Channel-Gaskets_c_324.html
They probably can't tell you whether it fits a Saab 99, but if you measure it and call them with the dimensions of the "U" they may be able to help you out.
For the rear window gasket, those do get crispy or perhaps the body shop cut it to get the glass out (at this point that's a bad idea, but if not specifically told they may not know how hard it is to get a replacement). In any event, try John Collins in OR, Roger Harris in MA as possible sources. I don't know if a C900 gasket can be adapted but it might be possible; it would probably need to be shortened and glued.
For the door gaskets, you should be able to use C900 gaskets - try Goldwing Saab Parts or ask on the C900 forum.
Good luck, nice looking car!
Best,
Gary
