So a couple of years ago I bought the Topcat Whiskers for our 70 Cuda. The car ended up in paint prison for way too long. 2 weeks ago I was installing the Whiskers. Found out the unopened package had 2 right outside door whiskers and no left one. I called Dixie Restorations 3 times and left 2 e mails with my information. No call back. I don't want to buy a complete set of whiskers when I only need one. Anyone have a solution?
Also anyone have a source for the thin black 2 sided tape that holds the CUDA' emblem on the rear panel the tape has dried up on the NOS one I have. thanks,Rod

I didn't throw them under the bus. It has been 2 weeks and no phone call as stated in my post. The product is great just incorrectly packaged. A little communication would be great.

OK got a phone call today. Dixie is trying to contact the manufacturer. Sir, I show your first email to us was on 9/16/2016 which was a Friday. Our kids were out of school the following week, and we took a few days off with them for Fall Break. We replied to that email on 9/21/16 while on break. I apologize that I did not setup our email to send you an out of office message that replies would be delayed. We are not open on weekends. Per your reply to that email on 9/21/16 with your address and phone number we sent that information to the manufacturer asking them to send you the replacement part needed. We called today to check on the status with the manufacturer and left them a voicemail. Hopefully, we'll know something tomorrow. It's been a few years since we sold parts at the Nationals that weren't pre-ordered, so I know how you must feel with your car being in paint prison. I personally went through a similar experience with a car I own and understand your frustrations with wanting to assemble it and some parts being wrong. I apologize for the issues you're having, rest assured we will do our best to resolve it. Thank your for your business, Randy Gann

Thank you,that is fantastic. I would have purchased the part just didn't want to have to buy a whole set again.
Also on the 2 sided tape found some 3M extreme duty thin black tape and it worked perfectly.

Here are a couple of pics. It is an original owner V code 4sp. It was an NHRA stocker from 75-78. It was street driven before that 34,000 miles. It has numbers matching engine and trans.

Thanks Tom Tom, The kits are sold as 8 pc complete kits or 4 pc outer kits. I doubt they would want to start selling individual pieces as it impacts inventory control and production. However, if you want us to check with them, email us at the email below with your delivery zip code and we'll check and see what they say. But, I don't want you to get your hopes up on it. Thanks, Randy
