The car was and untouched all original paint, runs included rust free slant six, three spd on the floor with black interior and black vinyl top. burned orange metallic paint and magnum500s. all original component except the radiator and the painted bumpers. the spare tire has never been used, the white letter are still on the tread and all tits intact. the car was a second owner car when I bought it and would be now 4 owner total with Jack Wur as the current owner. I own the car for about 2 months and put about 500 miles on it when I was introduced to Jack Wur through a common friend of ours Wayne Halabura who is well known for his own high end hotrods. I then sold the car to Jack Wur and immediately started to tear down the car.10 solid months of work myself with help from: Bruce williams who was the artistic designer, he did the renderings the paint scheme design, the interior design as well as the two tone lay out. my dad Jake thiessen did alot of fabrication, disassembly, assembly. jason Wur (Jacks son) fabrication, assembly, fabricated the trunk panels. Abe fehr, painted the entire bottom side of the car for me. Andrew Feris wet sanded and polished the entire car. Mark at Braithwaites upholstery did all the leather wrapping of the interior panel. The whole car was turn key built In my restoration shop Creative Concepts & Restorations in warman, Saskatchewan Canada, with the exception of the bottom side of the car being sprayed at Dodge city Saskatoon. with the help of many talented individuals. Jack Wur is an absolute stand up guy, building cars with him has been an absolute thrill. He is a restoration shops perfect customer. He allows me to build his cars as though they are my own. He has very high standards in workmanship but leaves the detail and creativity largely up to us. I half jokingly tell everyone that" its my car Jack just owns it. It takes an incredible customer to see a project of this nature through inside of a year.
