Yes, Darrins were assembled in Jackson. Here's a picture of the building - taken about 20 years ago.

I have always been told the Dragons Trim was done at that location . This also added the handcrafted idea. Lincoln always said they did this with Cartier . Spent More Time for quality control.

You can read all about the Jackson MI plant (with pictures) in KFOCI HANDBOOK.  All members of the KFOCI either got the latest edition (Version 5.0) in 2013 or if you joined since then, you got it with your new member packet.  Use the table of contents on the CD to look up the facility.
