Well it's a Kaiser, not  Frazer - big difference. Also, it is not a deluxe - but the seller likely is not aware. It looks fixable.  The seller also claims to have a " '48 Kaiser Manhatten" parts car.  We all know there is no such thing as a '48 Kaiser Manhatten, and I think the seller means Manhattan. In either case, the don't exist.

I've seen a few with blue engines.  What is that about?  Maybe they just repainted a rebuild with Ford blue?  Just curious if it might have been an aftermarket motor or something.

could be.  I've seen engines that were Sears rebuilts from the 1950's with blue blocks and heads.

I too have seen a number of blue engines, including the one I put in my '52 Henry J Vagabond.
