New Kaiser guy, lots of questions

[Wildcat]

Yeah, I would like to get my hands on one of your CD's Ben.  Kind of wish I knew about you two months ago.

[Kaiser Ranchero]

Do you know the history of your car? Was it a 2dr coupe or 2dr sedan? Does it have a top, if so what was the make before becoming part of the Kaiser?

[Wildcat]

Sedan.  I thought I saw on here somewhere that someone makes new windshield moldings.  Is this true, or am I seeing things?  I'm pretty close to drive around time and my windshield molding is falling apart and it would be nice to have something to stop bugs.  By the way everything is wired except for the OD solenoid, maybe do that tomorrow, the horns sound really cool.

Your going to have a fun car....take some goggles on that test drive and keep us posted

[Kaiser Ranchero]

Wildcat, is there a convertable top? Or top frame work? The club has windshields and Rudy has the moldings.

[Wildcat]

I have a top off of a Cadillac something or other, I don't possess the skill or patience to install it though.  Does anyone know the best way to get a hold of this Rudy character?  I found his number on Kaiser Bill's site, but things can be outdated.  Also please tell me there is something that goes between the bumper and body.  I don't have anything that looks like it would go there but there is a giant gap that looks like butt.

There is a one piece filler panel that goes between the bumper and body on the 51s. Attached to it is a flat piece of rubber that acts as a gasket between the panel and bumper. They are not easy to find in decent shape since the rubber allowed the panel to retain water and rust.

I assume you have Rudy's phone nbr and have tried without success to reach him. I've had luck at around the noon hour (eastern).

Yes, Rudy's in Calif. and he answers (sometimes) in the mornings.  Keep trying and eventually you'll get him.  I've bought many of his products and they are good.
