Places like Grippy,Rubber and rare spares have a selection of rubber sections in various sizes, they may have one to suit as your body has been modified or a genuine one glued in place without the lip.
I would suggest the VW one first if you can get one and the others as a last resort.

I should have stated more clearly that the lip has been cut off the seal not the body
so i just need a standard tailgate seal..............just didnt know if anyone stocked them

as far as I know the stock seal is no longer available I have been looking myself it had the moulded corners but you can buy the continuous length stuff that is close and that will do the job Im fairly sure vintage in Sydney will have it

Micks Motors or Tooleys are always worth a ring too.
