OVERALL THOUGHTS

It was a beautiful night, perfect for a cruise in. There was a good variety of cars there including many I had never seen at shows before. As Amigo2k pointed out the "02 62" corvette kit car was pretty cool. There was also a blue Henry J which is a rare sight as well as a brand new 09 Challenger sitting right beside a classic Challenger. It was interesting to see the contrast between the two when they were side-by-side.

OVERALL THOUGHTS

Overall a great night! I stopped in for about an hour and checked out the about 30ish cars that came in. The one car that caught my eye was a 2002 Vette that had a kit on it to make it look like a 1962 Vette; http://www.crcoachworks.com/

Did you notice how as he drove in everyone's heads turned and followed him around the lot. As soon as he stepped out of his car a crowd formed around it. I frankly liked the "02 62" better than some of the Thunderbird kit cars that I've seen

I know I was one of them! I thought at first it was an older vette with a newer engine.

Garibaldi, if you are talking about the blue car in the pic in the other forum, that is an Allstate. Sears sold Henry Js under their own name. The US map shape on the hood is their emblem.

Ah so the Allstate was distinct from the Henry J? So it was made by Allstate and not Sears? Thanks for clarifying!

The Allstate was built by Kaiser Frazer and was nothing more than a thinly disguised Henry J with all Kaiser badging removed and replaced by Sears Allstate tags.
The 1952 Henry J Vagabond, referred to as Early issue in much of the factory literature, was simply those approximately 7000 1951 models that had not been sold at the end of the 1951 model year with a few trim changes.

The Henry J could be purchased new with one of two engines, a 68 hp four cylinder and a 80 hp six cylinder.

Ah very interesting! I wasn't very familiar with the history of the Henry J - thanks for the info! It sounds like the Allstate was just a front for Sears to sell cars under their own "brand"
