1952 Henry J - Readers' Rides

9/30/2024

Here are some pictures of my good friend Jim Thompson's 1948 Austin (Pro Street) and my 1952 Henry J (the "Hairy Canary"). He lived a block behind me in Westfield, New Jersey and now lives in Mt. Sterling, Kentucky. These pictures were taken before I did the graphics on both rear fenders. I'll be painting the Austin this coming spring. Jim went to Georgetown College after he graduated back in 1962 and I got a job offer back in 1974 from Blue Ribbon Pen and Pencil Company (where the No. 2 yellow pencils that we used in school were made) in Georgetown, KY and ended up as Assistant Plant Manger. I also started my own custom body and paint shop called "Fat Daddy's Auto Body" that I ran on the side for years. I hope your readers will enjoy this. Submitted by Art Bigelow of Georgetown, KY
