I saw this excerpt in a column in my local newspaper. In Bullring Days 2, one of the young racers drove a Henry J at Bradford Speedway. I deleted the person's name for privacy.
Henry's car
XXXXXXXXXX XXXXXX, of Metairie, says our mention of Kaiser-Frazer automobiles reminded her of the time in the '50s that Kaiser sponsored a contest to name its new economy car:
"I don't know what the prize was, but my father got interested in thinking up a name. We had discussions around the dinner table, and all offered suggestions.
"He finally decided on 'Econoluxe' — combining the idea of affordability and quality. We were sure we had a winner.
"When the winner was announced and it was Henry J, we were stunned. Daddy's name was Henry J. XXXXX. Go figure!"
