Looking for parts and information
« on: February 02, 2016, 08:26:14 PM »
I am looking for a radio mounting bracket for a 1951 Henry J or information on what one looked like so I can build one. Looking for a gear shift knob. Also wondering if anyone had information as to where to get upholstery material that replicates the original?

Can you post picture of what is left of you upholstery? There were many HJ interiors.

There were many different trim codes available on the '51 Henry J so it would be helpful to have a picture of the trim code itself to determine what material is needed. Also, there were two different radio kits available for the '51 Henry J and even though they look similar at first glance, they are actually quite different and most parts do not interchange.
