I can add some information to one of the dealers in Missouri. My uncle Melvin Anschutz worked for Mr. Makin and I believe that the date of 1950 is not complete. Two uncles bought new 1948 Kaisers from Makin Motors on Main Street in Grandview (south of Kansas City, MO.) and my father bought a used 1948 Kaiser traded in on a 1951. As a kid of 10, my sister and I "explored" the 1951 Kaiser Traveler in his showroom by going in the back door and out the lowered tailgate which is how it was displayed in the showroom. I think that it was a gray color. My uncle Melvin bought a new 1952 Kaiser from Makin which was a light blue, and another uncle bought a "plain Jane" 1953 Kaiser (medium blue) from the same source. My first purchased Kaiser was a 1951 Kaiser 4 door deluxe that had been traded in to an Oldsmobile dealer in Kansas City that my uncle went to work for in 1954 after leaving Kaiser. He remembered selling the car new and got it for me for $75.00 The dealership building was there for some years afterward and I stopped to see about any parts in the 1970's but as told that they had all been put in a dumpster and hauled off some months earlier.
