Happy birthday, as Milton Berle once said he felt like 23 but they don't come around much. Not in your case I see. Congrats on the show award.

Thank you all for the birthday wishes.
The trophy is 5' tall.
Here is a pic of a Henry J that was at a car show that I was at. Nice to see another Kaiser out there.
