To the untrained eye, it's a nice looking car and if it runs well would probably make a great car to take to cruise-ins and local shows. To a KF judge, it has its problems. I'll leave the list to others.

Comment from "Others". I wonder how an ALLSTATE hood ornamen wound up on it? It does look like a nice car.The engine compartment looks like it has been blanket sprayed with something black.

I wonder if the '51-'53 Kaiser radio was dealer installed? I've never seen that in a Henry J before. I see an overdrive relay mounted correctly on the firewall but I don't see an OD control cable under the dash. None of this makes it a bad car by any means.

I would like to see full sized hubcaps on a Corsair Deluxe, the Jute Mat in the Trunk, the correct headlight rings and the front K should be gold not red. Seems 2 front bumper guards would be plenty.

But the ad says "Factory original" so the extra bumper guards and headlight trim must be what it came with.
