Hi Folks,

This is Jim from JS Restorations. I mainly specialize in Cuda and Challenger electrical restorations of the full line of switches and relays, rear window defoggers, non A/C heater boxes, and harness repair. Dash heater control panel and A/C control panel re-lettering and plastic grille restorations. Dash, front and rear lens polishing. I have lots of used parts, too.

I am increasing the line of switch restorations to include the B body cars.

I have restored parts to offer or I can restore your parts.

If there is something you are looking for, please feel free to email at jsrestorations@rocketmail.com or call 1.412.295.1333.

I will be attending Carlisle at booth D27 & the Nats at booth K1 and I look forward to meeting you at one of these shows.

Thank you for checking this thread. Here are pictures of some of the restoration work that I do.

Jim









































































































































Thanks again for looking.

Jim

I will keep an eye out for you at Carlisle, see you soon.

Hi Damon,
Thank you very much for the kind words! I do appreciate it. Stop by and say hello if you are making to Carlisle. It looks like a monster engine is in the works.

I do have and will try to accomodate requests for date codes on the parts that I have in stock. Just ask and I will see what I can do to help.

Thank you,

Jim

Hi Folks,

I wanted to mention that I have been recovering from a recent surgery and have not actively worked on any restorations for about a month. I have not been responding to PMs, phone calls and emails in a timely manner, either.

As of this weekend, I have started to make an effort to get rolling again. I will try to reply to all unanswered correspondence this coming week and more importantly, to work on the parts that have been sent to me for restoration.

I apologize for the delays that I have caused during this time and look to rectify any issue as soon as possible. Thank you to those who have been very understanding and very patient with me. I appreciate it.

Thanks again,

Jim

Thank you, Jules. It's been a slow recovery and pretty much recoverd now.

I just completed these ten 2770380 variable speed wiper switches for the Cudas and Challengers. This is the most I have restored at one single time and they are all spoken for.

Three of these are going overseas. One will be on it's way to Norway, one to Australia and one to New Zealand! I really do enjoy trying to help and admire their drive to restore a Mopar. Parts can be hard enough to find just in the States.

In the future, I will only be offering these 2770380 with a core exchange. If you do have this type of switch and would like to sell, please send me an email with a few pictures and a price.



Here's a short video clip showing how I test these through an E body dash harness and three speed wiper motor. The light simulates the washer motor power. Just click on the image above to view.

Thank you for the inquiry. I have received lots of inquiries about restoring the B body 68 - 70 switches. Believe me, they are not ready to offer, but are on my radar screen.

I have only been asked one time before and restored a set of power window switches. Nobody ever asked about the power window wiring or cruise control. Please send me an email if you would like to discuss these further. Thank you for asking.

Thank you Darren and William.
The last piece of the puzzle for the B body switches is getting the original plastic knobs rechromed. I was not at all satisfied with the quality of the chroming and the turn around time of the last company I was trying to work with. I believe I have found a very reputable company this time and samples are in the works.

While attending the16th Annual All Mopar Winter Swap Meet in Columbus, Ohio on February 26, I had the pleasure of meeting Rob Wolfe. I introduced myself and mentioned that I had started a business restoring Mopar parts. Also mentioned that I had advertised previously in MCG and asked if he had any ideas about promoting JSR in MCG. I showed him a 2770380 variable speed wiper switch that he gave a close look to and asked if I had anything else with me. I pulled out a 2947713 dash dimmer switch and a 2947305 headlight switch. He took them, turned over a poster board for a white background and started snapping pictures. He stated that he wanted to run a press release on JS Restorations in the next month’s issue and that someone would be in touch. Within a week, Randy Holden called, did a phone interview and here is the outcome in the June 2011 issue.

This is a 71 Challenger grille and bezels that I recently completed. There were some repairs that were done a long time ago that needed corrected. One of the unusual areas that needed repaired were the stainless trim sockets and the lower rear mounting tabs that were badly wrapped. The trickiest part of this restoration was masking for the top and bottom black areas between the high and low beam openings because of the compound radiuses and centering the triangle points. This was a 75 hour project that included 25 hours for masking and masking removal.

Very nice work

Would you consider restoring fuel sending units? This is a huge issue since "the industry" has not made accurate units in ages.

The rheostat windings are tricky, if you got one opened up you'd see it immediately. Also the contact seems to fail, so maybe a better design is possible?

Thank you!

Yes, I have had to open those and adjust them to get back to -12 and -70 ohms. You're right that not many new ones read correctly out of the box and it was a bad design from their inception.

I promised that I would soon be offering B body restored switches. Here are some prototype restored rallye switches. I only use the word “prototype” because I have some tooling and chroming details to resolve. Non rallye switches will be offered after these.

The 68-69 dash dimmer switches will offered with custom made 302 stainless steel resistor coils.

I was extremely disappointed with the first vacuum metalized plating service company that produced poor results and cost me more time and dollars than I care to mention. I will not comment, please don’t ask.

An extremely respected vacuum metalizing resource is now working with me. I look forward to being able to offer these knobs as original as possible.

My goal is to be able to offer my restored switches with the option of vacuum metalized knobs just the way they came from the factory or plastic chromed knobs.

I have a pair of NOS dash dimmer switches at the end to show what NOS, after 40+ years at premium prices, really pays for.

More to come. Stay tuned…

Hi Jim,

I see you repair interior plastics.
It looks as if you have nailed the textured finish on the switch panels and under gauge panels. Do you have any other pictures you could post of the textured finish on panels you have repaired please< such as the radio panels and A/C panels and Non-Rallye control unit panels. It looks like i will have to send some plastics back to the USA for a touch of class from your good self, love your work .
Thanks,

If you think it was from a 60's car, well no.

Hi Jim WOW

Your workmanship really is outstanding. Looks like a void in the market that has been needed to be filled has finally has come with your ability to provide any panel needed weather it be custom or original with such detail work to make pieces look as new condition.

I will be in touch with you shortly to place an order, i hope business is good, i am thinking you would be swamped with request from both Country wide and World wide.

Keep up the amazing work, void filled and with class, well done JS Restorations.

Hey Jim,

As for these switches you posted. I would guess they came in a mid 50's car, they look as if they are a little larger than the 60's stuff and i know that Mopar released Power everything in the 50's, you name it the released it with POWER, even to the point there was a dash mounted pod that was a light sensor that would dip your lights automatically when an approaching car came toward you.........

I'll check my stock and let you know. Thank you for asking. Were you able to isolate the problem that caused that condition?

Nice work Jim!

I have a 1972 Plymouth Satellite Heater/AC control I need restored. It is all intact, never taken apart. It is just aged and I need it brand new looking and working again. Ball park me on it if you would please. Thanks! Steve Reid 562-254-5340

Hi Folks,

This is Jim from JS Restorations. I mainly specialize in Cuda and Challenger electrical restorations of the full line of switches and relays, rear window defoggers, non A/C heater boxes, and harness repair. Dash heater control panel and A/C control panel re-lettering and plastic grille restorations. Dash, front and rear lens polishing. I have lots of used parts, too.

I am increasing the line of switch restorations to include the B body cars.

I have restored parts to offer or I can restore your parts.

If there is something you are looking for, please feel free to email at jsrestorations@rocketmail.com or call 1.412.295.1333.

I will be attending Carlisle at booth D27 & the Nats at booth K1 and I look forward to meeting you at one of these shows.

Thank you for checking this thread. Here are pictures of some of the restoration work that I do.

Jim









































































































































Thanks again for looking.

Sorry for the late reply. I’ve been a bit under the weather lately and put a post in the General section a few weeks ago. I will be trying to reply to everyone shortly. It’s just taking a bit longer than I expected to recover.

Great to hear from you, Russ and thank you very much. I’m glad the see you’re out stinging with the Bee!

Thank you, Steve. I will be in touch.

There is a subtle clearance difference between a 2770378 and 2770380 wiper switch. The E body shaft is 3/32” longer between the threads and the D channel than the A body shaft.

I now have an active contest in the Moparts General section for you to be able to win a restored A, B, C or E body part. Contest rules are posted there, too. Good luck.

Thank you Herve! I look forward to seeing some pictures with your car parked by La Tour Eiffel and Arc de Triomphe.

I have purchased several items restored and custom made by JS Restorations. I am very picky, so Jim's OCD and attention to detail are exactly what I look for. Can't wait to order a few more high quality parts.

Thank you too, Carl. Yes, OCD (Obsessive Chrysler Disorder)!

It was great working with both of you. I appreciate it.

Amazing work Jim, again!

I'll hope to get some more work one of these days since I have power windows that act up sometimes.

Has anyone ever asked about working on Overhead console lights from SE and Gran Coupes (as well as some Sea Bodies) It got me thinking after seeing your work that this is one area that could use some action.

Thank you! I can help you with the power windows. I do work on the SE - GC overhead console lights and wiring. Email or phone is the best way to contact me.

Just as a note, a friend of mine Claude, is now making reproduction overhead fiberglass headliners, consoles and sail panels. His first showing was at the Nats this year. I saw them and they are beautiful. Available with or without headliner material. Here's a contact for him: www.seheadliners.com
