The only change on 1950 models were the tags.  The AMA did not recognize them as legit 1950 models; Kaiser-Frazer combines 1949 and 1950 model activities (cars buiilt, sold, etc) in their Operating Reports.  They learned from this incident.

I will be honest; I do not know if the black spinner is painted or molded plastic.  What about it, Chief Judge?  What do you say?

My HJ didn't have one when I bought it so I make one myself. It looked so bad it into the garbage can.
