Thanks to all those who replied with their experiences with the broken 
check strap anchors. I'm not alone.

It looks like I've stumbled into one of the few parts on these cars that 
is commonly needed but doesn't have an off-the-shelf replacement.

I think I'll try to weld up a backing plate to be bolted inside the door 
that can receive the check strap. Or something.

Too bad those guys at 'ARE' don't have a product like this made from 
stainless.   

:^)

Thanks, gents,
