1951 Henry J -- Fresh Out of Barn

[VladBlok28]

a car named after a guy? 

[jacktheripped]

Heh, this reminds me of when I had a '53 Henry J and a friend wanted to put a 392 and cast iron auto into it. I didn't think it would hold up to a 1000 motor and transmission ;)

Ended up with a 215 Olds aluminum V8 with auto, ran pretty good.

[jacktheripped]

@jacktheripped ...1000 pould motor and trans.

[gunny426plymouth]

[redsrat56]

Henry J,s make great gasser 

[Agent0061958]

I don't think I've ever seen a Henry J in person before. It's a cool find, but I'd have to say that '58 DeSoto would be my dream car. The one in your video even has the added chrome dress-up package that became available on DeSoto's half-way into the model year, I believe.

[TheCoreyonebadz28]

is that a 1958 fury to the left

[shikatema4]

Im trying to get me a 1955 T-Bird in someones garage. Its in beautiful condition. just been sitting for years.

[videobro4]

you should fix em up or sell them

[ScorpionBonneville]

We did sell the Henry J for about $2,100, the Desoto we want to keep and fix up.

[LitterboxDiorama]

I would have sold the DeSoto ......you take the Henry, slap in a 350 chevy spray on some grey primer and its on the road smoking mustangs in 2 months for dirt cheap. The DeSoto will have you in tears before long

[cffnmkr13]

I was just thinkin', DEMOLITION DERBY! O hell yes, that would be fun!

[PlatypusWrestler]

I wish I could say I knew someone with classics like that in their backyard, whatever the condition.

[dance12333]

[ScorpionBonneville]

Yep it's a DeSoto. =)

[BANGERS68]

[inkey2]

[retroolschool]

yeah sweet desoto dude, had a 59 myself, and was restored.

[herbienbrian]

cool desto :D

[1947Desoto]

Are you going to restore the Henry J?

[ScorpionBonneville]

We actually sold it about a month ago for $2500. The people are going to restore it to be a bracket racer again. =)

[giberish9]

What are you gonna do with the Desoto?

[ScorpionBonneville]

My Dad bought this car in 1972. It is the one he has had the longest, so we are going to restore it.

[giberish9]

Does it still have the 361 V8?

[ScorpionBonneville]

Yep, it does.
