Wow!  Thank you for letting us know news about Jules. 

He was a special person and a great Mopar man.  He will be missed greatly,

Very sad to hear about Jules. I have always respected his attention to detail and craftsmanship and will treasure the pieces he has restored for me. He will always ride with me.

God bless you Jules.

Very very sad news.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Very sad to hear, he did many a wiper motor and linkage for me and was a very decent person. I remember long talks about his daily driver to get a fix for his shocks. He will be missed by many.

Thanks for letting us know. :'( :canada:

Dave,

Very sorry to hear the loss of your close friend.  As they say, keep their memories a live and they will never die!  Cancer sucks!  My mother in law just found out about that recently too and hopefully they got it all.  If not, she has a very long road ahead as it is a pretty aggressive type of cancer for women with typically not a good outlook.

Jules has helped me when I did the conversion for the 2 spd to 3 spd wiper system on my charger.  Really great guy.  Certainly a HUGE asset to the car hobby as his work always was above and beyond what the other competition was.  Hopefully some of his knowledge was passed on to others as it would be even a greater loss for the hobby if we did not learn anything from him.

RIP Jules!   :angelwings:
