Hi Lee. Woodward time again already. Man these years go by fast..this

I'll be doing the HT thing again this year. I haven't made up my mind
where I'll hang out. My step dad will have his car at the Michigan State
Fair grounds. The US Postal Service is issuing a new series of stamps.
One is a Kaiser-Darrin. He has a 1954 model. Out of the 380 or so left
his is one of around 8 with an "X" in the serial number meaning it was an
experimental model. From what he told me there will be two cars of that
type there. The reason his will be there is because he had it at the last
Detroit Autorama and he is a retired postal employee. The car was new
when his dad got it. His dad was also a postal employee too.
The link below gives a bit of history about the car model.

Pretty cool. That was quite sporty for that era. The engine was the
hurricane, with a gold plated air cleaner. Reckon what it's worth today?
