Part Identification
« on: May 27, 2020, 09:14:17 PM »
I recently acquired a load of parts that came with two 1953 Manhattans. I was able to identify most of them but I have a few I'm not sure of. Can anyone identify any of these? Please include specific models and applicable years if known. I plan to sell any of these that don't go to my '53 Manhattan and I want to make sure they go to the correct cars/people. Thank you for any help you can provide.

Part number 1 is a full wheel cover for '51 and early '52 Kaiser (Virginian) - pretty common.  Part number 7 are 1951 and early 1952 Kaiser (Virginian) tail light lenses.
I don't believe number 3 is a KF part at all.

Hopefully someone can help with the rest.

Item #5 is a Ford bezel. Numbers 8, 9 and 11 are not KF.

#12 is hood ornament chrome for 51 HJ or 51 Kaiser depending on length of spear.  Don't have either to measure but memory says HJ  is approx 16" long while full size 51 Kaiser is approx 21".

Depending on price, I would be interested in part 1, the full wheel cover...

Would be nice to have a spare for my 51 Deluxe.

Thank you everyone for all of the help. Hopefully I can get all of these parts into the hands of fellow KF owners very soon. Speaking of which, Konrad I have a bunch of those wheel covers. Let me sort through them and I'll send you a private message asap.
