The 1953 Traveler is extremely popular with the people when I take it to car shows. I have been asked to attend both the Huntington Beach and San Marino Concours De Elegance car shows these past two weekends because of its crowd appeal. The 1953 Manhattan, as I point out, was considered the most beautiful 1953 car in the world by 8 different countries, see attached ad!! People just don't see the uniqueness that Henry J. Kaiser promoted in all he did!! They appreciate the versatility of the Traveler as the first hatchback. Mark Steele's traveler is a real deal for the crowd appeal it will bring at car shows. My dad had a 1948 Traveler and a 1953 Manhattan, as you can see in the 1955 photo of our property in Downers Grove, IL. If I didn't have my Traveler, I would snatch up Mark's car in a minute. I paid much more for my traveler but I don't regret it.
Maybe you can get a nice Henry J with the rest of your money???
