I found in a post from 2015 he was going to retire in the spring of 2016 and moved Tampa-Sarasota FL and Charlotte NC or TN.
Jim sold his Dart

His last post was in Dec 2016.

I hope he is well. I bought an electric fuel pump from him around that time.

Having a son in the sport keeps me going longer than my body would like. I was offered 14,000.00 for one of my cars as a roller yesterday but I wasn’t even tempted. My two boys can split it up when I’m 😵

Livin and lovin life one day at a time

He contacted me at that time. I was going to let him stay here while he checked out the area. We talked a couple times, then, never heard from him again.

Great guy, spent a lot of time documenting his builds and testing. Hope he's enjoying his retirement (I'm 3-1/2 years out).

Last time I saw him he was running a late model challenger. That was at Maryland International I think last year.
