Henry J & Allstate Forum / 51 HJ Wiring Harness
« on: October 16, 2023, 10:30:16 AM »
I've decided to stop trying to track down bad wiring and see if I can purchase a new complete wiring harness for my 51 HJ. I saw some older forum threads from a few years ago mention Robert McBride as someone who has produced good harnesses for our little cars. Does anyone here know if he still does this type of work?

Henry J & Allstate Forum / Seat Upholstery
« on: January 01, 2023, 11:24:07 AM »
I was wondering if anyone knows, off the top of their head, how many yards of upholstery is needed for the front and back seats in a HJ? I have done some measuring, and came up with over 9 yards. I've never redone upholstery before, and am really hoping that my measurements are incorrect. Surely it's less than that?

« on: December 08, 2022, 12:54:34 PM »
I am finally starting back in on my HJ, and am discovering different items that I need for the interior.
Arm Rests
Inner panel retainer clips
Rear panel ash trays
Accessory knobs - choke, wiper, etc.. (all of mine have crumbled to pieces)
Floor Mats (front & back)
Trunk lock cylinder
I would also be interested in a decent front seat. I can have mine recovered, but the springs and frame are not in the best condition. Figured if I could find a seat that was in better condition than mine, I'd just have the new one recovered.
Also would like to find a decent heater or at least the blower motor that works.

I just read through all of your updates for the first time, and really enjoyed it. You have done some great work on your HJ. I might try to utilize some of your updates on my '51 HJ

I am looking for all interior upholstered panels for my 51 HJ. I currently have nothing at all to work from. Also looking for floor covering, either carpet or rubber.

I greatly appreciate your insight. I have already purchased the service manual that you mentioned, but haven't bought the parts book as of yet. I will do so this week.
Being a small block Chevy guy all of my life, I am very appreciative of your knowledge in the potential issues with this particular engine.
I plan to take the head off in the next day or so, and start to examine what I have, and what needs to be done.

Henry J & Allstate Forum / L134 Rebuild
« on: October 22, 2021, 12:28:51 PM »
Hello All! I'm a newby to Henry J's, having just purchased my first one a little over a month ago. I am intending to keep it stock, and need to rebuild the L135 4 cylinder engine. The engine is not locked up, but one cylinder shows no compression. I haven't opened it up yet to see if it's a valve or back cylinder. But I had planned to rebuild the engine anyway, because I want it to be a reliable daily driver. I'm looking for recommendations as to where to buy the necessary parts?
I'm sure that I'll have more questions as I go along. I bought my '51 as a basket case, but relatively solid original.
