POLL: How Many Kaiser Frazer Or Willys Products Do You Own?

[Aeroman]

At this time, I own a 1954 Willys Aero Eagle (Old Toby) that I bought in 1978 and a 1952 Kaiser Manhattan 2-door Traveler that I bought in 2003. Do we get to count the cars we used to own? 10 or 11 or 12 other Willys Aeros, 1 '51 Henry J and 1 '51 Kaiser Deluxe 2-door.
P.S. the new website looks great!

I presently have a '48 Kaiser 4dr sedan and a '51 Kaiser Deluxe 4dr sedan.  I almost purchased a '51 club coupe today, but the owner's wife refused to let me purchase it for the agreed upon price  . Very frustrating!

Fid. We purchased the car from the son of a Dr that bought the car new that also lived in Des Moines.We took a day and went sightseeing and picked up the car from him and drove her back. When we got the car it wasn't in very good shape. The interior was rough, the paint was cracking from way too many coats of corn laquer paint. We stripped the car, straightened the body work. And had Max's body shop in Millard NE paint the car. (Max is a freind of Dad's)

The interior work dad and I did ourselves and I think that it turned out great.

The drivetrain was supposedly freshened up just before we got it and they rolled back the odometer so we have no idea how many "true" miles are on the car. The odometer now reads 10,195.

Its a great car that I love owning and driving when I get the chance. I have some more pics of the car if you are interested. Send me an email or a PM and I will send some to you.

Thanks for the info Chris.  It looks like my search for the one I passed on will continue. I'm very curious as to where it ended up.

Your welcome FID.

I found a pictures of her at a car show from last year.

Once again, very nice car!  Here's the only photo I have of the one I have been looking for
The photo was taken in Omaha circa 1972. The last time I saw the car, it had been painted, upholstery done and mostly reassembled. That was 1978 and it had a lot of promise.  For years it sat in a driveway along Martin Drive or Fontanelle Blvd, right where that railroad bridge was removed in the late 70s. Where is it now?  That is my question.

[hoss]

I know exactly where that was.

That is some of my old stomping ground (among many others)!

Its a small world Fid.

Lets see, between my father and myself we have a total of six Kaisers. Dads' 54 Kaiser manhattan and a 54 parts car. A 53 DeLuxe Sedan (parts), A 52 Kaiser Manhattan (restoreable), The 47 Kaiser Special recently aquired from my other father Verner Glenn. And the pride of the managerie, the barn saved 51 Kaiser Special. All of the Kaisers we own are 4-door sedans. We are not so intrested in Frazers even though I think the 49 Frazer Manhattan is quite beutiful. The collection would not be complete without a Willys. I am always looking for a 43 Willys Jeep with a war story ans bullet holes in it! Lets see what I can find!
