Welcome to the group!

Your two Henry J Automobiles seem most interesting.  If you have the opportunity could you please post all the numbers off the body tag located by the hood hinge on the driver side (USA driver side) of the car.  Also the serial number off the left door post serial number tag and city listed on the tag (Toledo, Willow run, Rotterdam, Haifa, etc).

Thanks

Fid

Hi Eric, I am the person you e-mailed the other day and I replied. I too really like the tutoned car. It's interesting  that you point out it  is a K524 which indicates a '52. I thought it looked like a '52 in pictures / videos you sent. The differences are very subtle - a '53 Corsair deluxe would have a covered dash, windshield wiper knob on face of dash above ignition switch and the rear bumper is more 'V' shaped and has a fastening bolt in the middle. Of course, maybe the import cars, or Rotterdam (I don't know if the Rotterdam plant produced Henry Js) produced versions may be unique.  Anyway, regardless, you have a great car!  Two of them actually-I really like the tutone car.
