Revell 1:25 1951 Henry J Gasser – 95-14514
By the mid ’50s, the Gasser class was one of the most popular categories in drag racing. Small, short-wheelbase cars were perfect for hot rodders to convert into gassers. They disassembled it, jacked it up, replaced the engine and off we went. The Henry J’s small size made it perfect for a Gasser. The Henry J was made by the Kaiser-Frazer Corp. manufactured and was only available for 4 years. The Henry J was named after company chairman Henry J Kaiser and was sold from 1950 to 1954. Its small size was not what the consumer was looking for and only just over 7,000 were sold. The Gasser class began around this time and continued to be built until the mid 1970’s. They were given the Gasser name because they ran on gasoline and not methanal or nitromethane.
