Wow, that looks cool.  I'll bet Henry J. himself would be surprised to see one of his "people's cars" turning times like those.

Actually, Henry J. Kaiser would be turning in his grave.  This was NOT the kind of thing he envisioned for the program;  the Henry J in his eyes was to be the post World War II Model T...good, economical basic transport that any working American family could afford to buy new.
