I had my '51 Kaiser special there on Friday. I did see one stock '51 Henry J there on Friday. It's owned by a fellow named "Earl" in Ham Lake, MN. I didn't have my camera ready and could not catch up to him when he went by. The silver sparkle HJ Jake posted is owned by a guy named Iverson who inherited it from his father as I understand it. He sometimes shows up at the bi-weekly Hastings, MN shows. My daughter and I went back on Saturday but I didn't bring any of my cars and I'm glad I didn't! My road is all tore up and they were wetting it down all morning and I didn't want to take my cars out in the mud - a real mess. Then I found that Friday night they shut down a section of 35E and detoured it way around St. Paul. Not a route I would've wanted to take any of my old cars on. I never saw it as crowded as it was on Saturday! I counted 6 Henry Js and no Frazers. I saw no Kaisers other than mine.  One year there were 8 Kaisers, 1 Frazer and 12 Henry Js.  Anyway, the heat and walking were really getting to me too so my daughter and I only stayed about 2 hours on Saturday - left just before you called. Anyway, here's my Kaiser on Friday...

I will add that it would be great to get some more KF products to this huge show.  Last year Mike Barker was there with his '53 Traveler. Attached is a picture of it next to Edgar Kaiser's Henry J which I had there last year.  I have also attached some other KF cars seen there in past years.
