I heard this the other day in a PM.    I was hoping it wasn't true.   Terrible news.

Spoke with him twice seemed like a very nice guy. Would have loved to have some of his parts. Loss to the car community.

I hadn't heard this, but just found this....

I spoke to him a few times at the Mopar Nationals at his booth. Seemed like a very nice guy. Died much too young at 59....

So sad to hear.  And I echo the sentiment about 59, way too young.

[DonC1]

Yes way too young. JM's talents in sheetmetal wing car fabrication were truly excellent.

oh no.... I just found out.. Im sooo bummed.... I have some of his parts. That was the last person i knew that actualy made good parts correctly. I really dont think anyone will ever do what he did again. I was so happy we was in this hobby.. what a loss. damm.

Back in 2011 when I was getting ready for the Croxfords meet in Cleveland I needed the top inside extension made for my NOS Superbird nose. I contacted Jack and he wasn't feeling well then! He was also buried in projects with little time to spend in the shop.
I ended up making my own piece so I could attend the meet! I just wonder how many projects are at Jack's unfinished?
I back up the other comment about the loss of a true old school fabricator that will be hard to replace in our hobby! RIP JACK!
