Hello!   I have both a decent condition 1952 Kaiser Manhattan and a "parts car" 1953 Kaiser Manhattan for sale.  The vehicles are located in Lake View Terrace, CA.  Entertaining offers:  call (805)529-2480 for more details.  Thanks for being interested!!

Thanks for posting.  I would not mind having a 52 Manhattan but transport from Southern California to Iowa is $1500 at least.  This sounds like a regional sale opportunity.

Can you post pictures??

I will look into posting photos of the 1952 Kaiser Manhattan.  For the man who wanted to bring the vehicle to Iowa, is it for restoration purposes?

Hi spaceboy:
I have no idea what your cars condition is, but I am casually looking for a 52 Manhattan to own, drive, restore, all of the above.  For those in the know, 52 Manhattans were in a mid year addition to the line up, and I like the "hybrid" status between the 51's and 53's.  I think the 51's are a bit understated. 

A lot would depend on color and such, but the bottom line is $1500 spent on transport is too much.  I only look for KF's in the Midwest. 
I have a friend in the KF business that "had" a rare 1948 Frazer with leather interior that I would love to own but he lives northeast of San Diego and transport would add $2000 to the reasonable cost he was asking for the car.  I am sure that car is crushed now.

Check with Rudy as it may still be available.  I saw the car and it is black with leather interior and seemed to be California rust free.  I could bring it to Iowa for $1500 if you really want it or maybe Rudy would deliver. I am also close to the '52 Kaiser Manhattan and could deliver it if needed.

Any photos yet?  Adding and reducing pixel size should work for this forum. 
What the colors on the 1952?
What is the original mileage?
What needs done - meachanically?
How long have you owned and how did you come into the cars? 
Thanks

Here are some photos of the 1952 Kaiser Manhattan.  Remember to email me at physics50@hotmail.com for more information.  I want to find a good home for the 1952.  There is a 1953 Kaiser Manhattan also, but it was severely damaged in an accident and is best viewed as a "parts" car.  I'll throw in the 1953 car for free to the buyer of the 1952!!
