Just got my alternator back from Jim Ridge of Dixie Restoration. What a beutiful restore. If you guys are planning to have one restored and want it done correctly he's the man.

Jim's work is perfect and lets you pay after you get the part back to make sure you are happy. There are no excuses or i forgot that. Its just done right. That tells you right there he does great work. I wish more would operate like he does. Thanks Jim again for a job well done.

Appreciate the kind words guys. I think it all starts by being a Mopar car guy first and a vendor second. We've all been disapointed with something advertised as correct, spot on, only to find out differently when we get it in our hands. Then you've got to decide if it's worth the battle to try and undo the money thing. It's also why we decided to do a no cost "cosmetic refresher" anytime within five years of purchase. I knew Dixie Restorations would turn out a better more accurate piece as we saw more originals, did more research, networked better with some of the hobby's "seniors." I feel like I've bought everything for my Challenger three times b/c when I started my resto there wasn't an ECS, Jules the Wiperman, B/E&A, Harms, AMD, Joe Arsenault, Randy Gann, Paul Jacobs, Mike Mancinni, Dave Wise, etc. I didn't want anybody to feel like they paid for an inferior job b/c we have improved our alternators and starters. Our early customers have the option to send back their parts for a free "upgrade." Thanks again to you all for your support of Dixie and I look forward to seeing you at the Nationals.

Jim has absolutely earned his right of passage into the "Good Guys and Buddy Club". BTW Jim, I will be sending yet another starter and alternator your way.
