[C320-list] ice box gasket

[Chris Descher]

What you've described is exactly what I wanted to do.  I ordered the
material, gave them my credit card, and nothing ever showed up.  My follow
up with them bounced back and forth between CA and FL, but they could never
figure out what to send me.  Then Gerry called, apologized, and said that
they don't have any of it, so I need to find it elsewhere.

Chris,

Did you speak to Catalina in Largo, FL? I purchased my ice box gasket from
them only 8-9 months ago. I don't recall the price but it was pretty cheap
and exactly the same as the old gasket it replaced.
