<VV> Car History Question -- No Corvair

[Frank DuVal]

Try again, the Henry J and the Allstate both had the 4 cylinder engine 
as standard equipment. The 6 cylinder was for the deluxe versions. Both 
were made by the Kaiser-Fraiser Corporation, but the engines were 
supplied by Willys-Overland Corporation.

Also, the Willys 4 banger 134 was available in Jeep ( Jeepster) products 
as both a flat head and an F head design. Just as the 6 was also made in 
flat and F head versions.

But the answer to the question of what cars were the economy cars, just 
about any used car of four+ years old would fit that description. Used 
car prices dropped very quickly. $150 could buy most any 6 year old 
Chevy, Ford or Plymouth. Check the old classifieds of the newspapers 
back then.
