Jack started building cars at the early age of 13 when his parents purchased a wrecked 1967 Austin Healey 3000. He did a complete frame-off rebuild and was bitten by the car bug instantly. Since then, he has built over 100 custom cars, from custom vans to 8 second drag cars, and everything in between. He has owned and built Corvettes, Camaros, street rods, customs, classics, and even custom boats.

Before founding North Texas Rod & Custom, Jack graduated from North Texas State University (now known as UNT). With a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration, Jack worked in the semi-conductor industry.  Until 1986, when he decided leave semi-conductors and go into business for himself. He owned and operated a general auto repair shop, but he always made time to build custom cars on the side. In 1994, with the back of his repair shop full of street rods and customs, he decided it was time for a change.

After Jack, and his family, moved to Kaufman in 1994, he incorporated his business as North Texas Rod and Custom, Inc. And the rest is history. As time passed, he gained experience and learned additional trades, including paint and body, as well as upholstery. Today, NTRCI is one of the oldest continually operating custom car shops in the DFW and North Texas areas. In addition to their longevity, NTRCI is recognized as building some of the nicest custom cars and trucks in the area. Contact NTRCI now for your next project.

When Jack wasn’t building cars or streetrodding, you could find him racing his 1969 Chevy Camaro Roadster. Jack raced at the Division 4 NHRA and IHRA in the 9.90 index classes of Super Gas and Super Rod. Jack could be seen racing all over the Southern United States and even at local tracks, like Texas Motorplex in Ennis.
