D&E Rods (One of Loomis's few blank distributors now) custom built a buch of rods on Loomis blanks.

Rods built included STR and SAR 1265 built with the BC Mooching handles, 1143's built up as spin rods and a couple of the SK style rods such as the 1085 and I believe the 1173 built with standard spind handles. Call around and you might be able to find one.
