Be Bold! Be Unique! Stand out in a crowd! 1953 Kaiser-Frazer Henry J! Fuel your dreams!

The 1953 Kaiser-Frazer Henry J was a pioneering American compact car, introduced in September 1950 and produced through 1954. Named after company chairman Henry J. Kaiser. Innovative compact design made the Kaiser the perfect car for Hot Rodders and custom car builders. The light body and short wheel base made it the prime choice for a V8!

Running a Chevy V8 with a nice performance cam "rumble" the Henry J grabs lots of attention. The 350 has a performer intake manifold matched to a classic Holley 4150, and HEI distributor. Keep cool under any driving condition with a Griffin aluminum radiator. Ram horn manifolds, 2.5" exhaust and Magnaflow mufflers gives an aggressive sound. This Henry J has a surprise, electric exhaust cut-outs! The TH400 three-speed automatic transmission and a 9" rear end gives solid reliable driving.

The Henry J is built to cruise in comfort and style with a Mustang II independent front suspension, tubular "A" arms, power steering, power brakes and yes front disc brakes. Even has coil over adjustable front shocks. You can adjust the ride height.

The interior is stunning! The red makes the Henry J just pop! All done in correct styling for a '53. Start with low back bucket seats and a clean dash. The Auto Meter set has speedometer, oil, water, and volts. Two rocker switches for left and right electric cut-outs. A retro style two-piece windshield. Safety first has seat belts and tinted glass. Fully detailed trunk to match the red interior. The Lokar floor shifter gives that manual look.

The lines and curves of Henry J are brought out by a deep glass black paint. The wraparound bumps, Henry J scrip badges and a rocket inspired hood ornament make for one distinct custom. The Henry J makes a statement...classic hotrod cool!
