My new to me 1954 Kaiser Special early, need a tail light

[j762538]

Can't believe I found a 1954 Kaiser Special (early) on Craigslist near me. It has been modified with a 327, power steering & power brakes. This is a car that is much more comfortable than my original 51 Traveler. It has some small issues, like it needs a right side tail light but just about everything works! Let me know if you have a spare taillight.

Nice!   

How about some underhood pics?

very nice! I love the colors!

Some more info, it has a Nova front end with disc brakes and a Chevelle rear end. The wheel well was cut out of it, maybe it had some rust, and it was covered over so I would be interested in getting it replaced. Need a left vent cable, battery hold down and a radio delete panel too. Here is a photo of the engine.

Is this the replacement for the Traveler or just an addition to the Fleet???   I remember, fairly recent, when you were contemplating selling the Traveler.

It also looks like it has been upgraded to 12 volts.

As much as I hate to, I am leaning more towards selling the Traveler to someone that can get it out more. Car shows are few and far between here in Oregon and the new car will be a more comfortable ride. Yes, it is 12v and has cruise control too.

I agree. My first Kaiser was blue with a white top too.

What is the part number for the radio delete plate?  I can't find a reference to it in the parts books and I file my parts by part number.  Don't know where to look on my parts list.  BTW, the right rear tail light lens is a rare one.  Saw a few months ago where one changed hands for over $500 on Ebay.

Thanks, I see one on ebay but it says for 51 52 53, don't know if it would fit a 54.

If it's a '54 Early Special, it will fit it.

It's hard to see, but by the picture it looks like it has '54 tail lights.
Is there a red plastic upper lens?

[j762538]

yes

I have an NOS radio delete plate to fit your car. I’m out of town until Saturday - I’ll pull one out when I get home and post a pic.

I have a used complete right side tail light assembly. Don't want to split it up.
Lenses have some scratches and the chrome has some pits -but not bad
