More door check rods available

Yahoo Message Number: 62674
I am posting this for Russ Cederholm:
..Just a quick note to tell you I just had two-hundred more door check rods made. It may be a good time to let folks know. You do a much better job posting than I. The new rod now comes with a rivet so it cut the install time down to about 1 hr.
Herb, because I gave some out for testing etc. there are about 250 installed. From information I received from Jim Cooley at CC, there were over 2700 of this model door that used the door check. This door was produced by Avionics which I now understand is either out of business or is going out of business. What is nice about the new rod is you do not have to replace the main part of the original door check assembly which I have no idea where one could be found. The part is used on GM SUV's and other models.
Just a note. I have had several people call or e-mail me saying the install went well and they loved the new rod.
Photos can be found in the "Door Check (Door Limit)" album in the Photos section of the CCO website.

Again I am posting a note from Russ Cederholm. He is the maker of the excellent stainless steel replacement Door Checks:
Herb.. Now that I am in Florida I thought I would see if anyone needed to repair their door with the new S/S door check I came up with. I have been through over 500 now without any problems. So if there are any other owners that need one, please pass on the information.
