1951 Henry J 2-door Sedan Street Cruiser - 355 Chevy Roller, 6-71 Blower, 700R-4

I am relisting this one time only and dropping the price $4000!  I have owned this car for nearly ten years and now it is time for me to let someone else enjoy it as I just reached my 65th birthday and I am slowing down somewhat.  

The car was built to be a cruiser – it is not a race car and has never been raced.   It was built to be loud and obnoxious. but easy and comfortable to drive.   It is reliable – always starts. runs cool. and has absolutely no leaks of any kind – oil. water. trans/rear end fluids.   I have taken it to shows in Biloxi. MS. Nashville. TN. Columbus. OH. and local events.   It does draw a crowd when they hear it coming.

The tires and wheels that are shown on the car do NOT go with the car.   Instead the tires and wheels that are shown in the pictures on the turquoise '55 Chevy will be on the Henry J.

I require a $500 non-refundable deposit via PayPal within 48 hours and I prefer the remainder to be wire-transferred to my bank. but will accept cashier's or personal check (must clear before release of the car) .   Total payment must be received within 5 days.   I will furnish a clear open title. a notarized bill of sale. and a current Alabama license tag with tag receipt in my name.   I will also assist with shipping.

You are welcome to personally inspect the car or have a professional do it for you – I am available most anytime.   You can ‘Ask Seller a Question' below if you want any specific information or pictures.   I can also be reached for information at 205-527-9750 most anytime.

I am listing the car elsewhere. so I reserve the right to cancel this ad anytime.   Thank you!
