'51 Delco-Remy Starter Rebuild

Hey Gang,

I just got the starter from my '51 200 Deluxe back from Philbin, a local rebuilder, and while they did a beautiful job of exterior restoration; the gear is in the fully extended position - which is why I took it in in the first place.
I've attached a picture showing what I mean.

Is this the way it's supposed to look? I was expecting the gear to be retracted. They installed a new Bendix Spring.

I called them when I got home as (like an idiot) I didn't look all that closely when I picked it up. Besides, they guy on the desk doesn't do the rebuilding of the starters.

I'm taking it back in tomorrow morning when the "Boss" is there and would like a little ammunition as I don't really know.
