What began as a stock 1952 Henry J turned into a 3-year complete customization project. The custom build of this amazing Henry J started with stripping the body down and replacing the original frame with a custom powder-coated Art Morrison chassis. The dash, doors and rear area were reinforced with steel tubing and sheet metal formed as covers. The hidden taillights, front and rear rolled pans, frenched headlights and shaved handles (inside and out) compose the major body mods, then it was treated to a smooth coat of Tangelo Pearl paint from House Of Kolor. The front grill was made from the original, with the turn signals hidden to match the taillights. A set of Budnik Diamond Light wheels (18-inch front, 20-inch rear) lend an aggressive look, which is accentuated by the cars low stance.

Work on the interior included replacing the rear seat with a custom speaker housing, with a custom console flowing forward and incorporating a touch screen DVD stereo sound system with 1,800 watts, more speakers, and controls for the Air Ride suspension system. The smoothed dash features white faced gauges in a billet strip, while a polished tilt steering column, Budnik wheel, and billet pedals add a...

This beautiful well-built Machine follows the classic hot rod formula, small car, big engine and slick paint. This 1952 Henry J is custom in every way, from the grill to the shaved deck lid. There is hardly a panel that hasn't been modified on this one of a kind custom street rod. Sporting shaved door handles, nosed hood, and a gorgeous green with flames paint job, this car is sure to always be a show stopper when she arrives. The interior is just as detailed with warm tan leather seats, matching custom headliner, and custom wood center console, this car is truly one of a kind. Under the hood there is a well detailed engine bay with a BBC 454 CID V8 as the centerpiece. This mammoth motor is backed by a built 400 turbo with a shift kit that lets you know when you've made it to 2nd and 3rd. Out...

This 1952 Kaiser Henry J is an extremely well built gasser drag car that has been rebuilt from the ground up. As it sits currently the car is powered by a mildly built 289 Hypo V8 Ford motor running through a Ford Top-Loader transmission and 9in Ford rear end. When first built the car was shortened and slimmed from all angles to save weight and given a full suspension rework; turning it into a purpose build racecar. Runs and drives, is street legal, and currently sits on a great looking set of American Racing wheels with Mickey Thompson Sportsman Radials. The car is fully titled and registered...

Odometer reads 95,934 miles, an amount believed to be an accurate count considering the originality. The Kaiser Manhattan's sole available engine in 1952 was the 'Supersonic Six,' the long-running L-head six cylinder, single exhaust and a two-barrel downdraft Carter WGD model 781S carburetor. A column-shifted three-speed manual Borg-Warner transmission was standard in Kaiser Manhattans, although, by itself, it was considered a special order. The manual transmission, shared with other Kaisers, is a sturdy unit, and rebuild kits are available from a number of sources. Aside from their bellhousings, the Hydra-Matic transmissions are interchangeable with those in contemporary Buick-Olds-Pontiacs, and are also durable. Kaisers of the early 1950s were well known for the personalization that...
