I think this is the late George Kolesar's car. If so, it is a nice car for the money. I live near where it's located and would be willing to take a closer look if anyone is interested.

Nice looking car. And of course, peac0ck blue is one of my favorite KF colors. Not to mention it's a Ford Kaiser Manhattan to boot!

The green ones with bamboo are my favorite. The 53's are good looking cars. By Ford I assume you mean it had a Ford running gear?

The seller listed it as a Ford.

You see that sometimes. Younger folks don't always know or realize there were other car companies back when so they assign it to one of the "Big 3."  It's a nice looking Kaiser just the same. The price seems OK too.
