    Looks like a 46-48 Chevy. It appears to be either a 2 dr town sedan like mine, or a moredoor. It has the accesory bumper tips, which are neat.

    42-48 Nash was my first thought...but I think the taillights aren't quite right. If it's not a Nash...it's a Chev, as previously posited

    They never produced a '45 Henway because of the war, at that time Henway produced anti-aircraft mines

    It's a '46 Chev Fleetmaster 4 door sedan. The only year for the trunk handle wings and curvy bumper combo.

    Definitely 42-48 chevy
    If you look real close at the blown up pic it looks like it has the fleetline trim, which would make it a four door.

    Nobody driving a Henway would just park it out in front of a bar like that! They are much too rare and valuable!

    I think Norm Grabowski is working on a new Henway project? Found it in NW Arkansas hills! Very rare tin!

    Yeah, I'd go along with '49 Chev on the left. But the bumper guards seem more 50ish. Don't remember the ones on our '49 being quite that tall.

    My brother-in-law had a Henway. I wanted to race him with my Studebaker, but he was chicken! That Henway had a huge back seat. He never dated so his sister and I would get in the back and "talk". I made him a plaque for the back bumper that said,
    "If this Henway's a rockin,
    keep yer *** outta here".
    I still keep in touch with the sister, and have for 47 years now.

    Figured sombody woulda asked by now. Lots of really young Hambers out there.
    I had a Henway once. It had a foghorn, but couldn't cross the road.

    I thought the line went:

    If the Henway's a-rockin'
    don't bother knockin'
