Title: Parts Manuals
Post by: pnw_oldmags on October 05, 2011, 09:39:29 PM

The First Parts Manual is now online.
1951 Kaiser Combined Chassis and Body Parts List
http://circlekf.com/kflit/PM/kfpm550.html (http://circlekf.com/kflit/PM/kfpm550.html)
The Access Via PartNo option is still being worked on - 1800 part numbers keyed and about that many more left.  If you have a slow internet careful with some of the Groups as they are quite large.  The access via options only bring up one page at a time so anyone should be able to try those. 
Hope you enjoy it and can use it.

This one has to be used in conjunction with the 1951 Kaiser Parts Manual if you have a 52 or 53 Kaiser.

Enjoy

How soon before a 54 K manual comes out?

Title: Re: Parts Manuals
Post by: pnw_oldmags on October 15, 2011, 08:02:10 PM

Early or late 54??
Working on the 51 HJ illustrated now.

Late 54K. I have a 54 K with 3 speed and O.D.

Which Part manual would you suggest for 1947??  Probably the 1947-1948
(http://circlekf.com/kflit/PM/kfpm240/kfpm240_thumb.jpg)
It is 320 pages.... GULP... that is a lot of scanning and keying but that is my plan.

Don't forget to also scan the November 1946 and the 1947 non-illustrated parts books; some of the numbers for earlier Kaiser and Frazer cars did not make the 47-48 version.  Items skipped include steering wheels and horn pieces (at the wheel) and other trim parts.

This showed up in Wisconsin a number of years ago because Fred Walker used the 47-48 book to pull parts for Gerry Laurin's early Kaiser and Gerry got items that did not fit on his car.

Post by: pnw_oldmags on October 19, 2011, 11:33:37 AM

Jack,  Are you saying we need both of these manuals scanned as well??

There were many other parts on the early cars that were different including grill, wheels, brake drums, outside door handles, trunk lid handle, hood, hub caps etc.  There is good information on many of the changes in the service bulletins as well.

Title: Re: Parts Manuals
Post by: pnw_oldmags on October 20, 2011, 06:20:37 PM

Gordie, Do you have extras of the two early parts Lists I could buy from you??
Can scan what I don't have.

1951 Henry J Parts Manual ... now started - the database is completed.  Scanned and loaded first 120 pages.   Let me know if you see problems.  Should finish in the next few days.

http://circlekf.com/kflit/PM/kfpm580.html (http://circlekf.com/kflit/PM/kfpm580.html)

This one is the only illustrated HJ Parts Manual.  If you have a 52 or later you need this one as the base and the later parts manuals are supplements to it.  Sorry for all the grease smudges but this is an experienced manual.

This part of the Parts Manual Online Project I am working on.
Key a part number into this link and it will show you where that part was used.
Right now not all Parts Manuals but do have a good start.

http://circlekf.com/kflit/kfpartrequest.html (http://circlekf.com/kflit/kfpartrequest.html)

Try Part No 200390 -- You can see it is both the 51 Kaiser manual and the 54 Kaiser Manual.
Click on VIEW PAGE to see the manual page it was shown on.

47-48 would be great, but since your doing the work I'd do the biggest one last  :) great project you have undertaken, thank you.

Working on 47-48 over the holiday.  It is huge though  ...  over 300 pages but there are mass illustrations which are nicely done.  Travel On

Title: Re: Parts Manuals
Post by: pnw_oldmags on November 24, 2011, 12:17:46 AM

The 49 Manual is larger than the 47-48 Manual.  But working on the 47-48 now.
http://circlekf.com/kflit/PM/kfpm240.html (http://circlekf.com/kflit/PM/kfpm240.html)
Scanned the first 70 pages of 300+.  Keyed 1000 so far of close to 4000 part numbers.  Later.

Title: Re: Parts Manuals
Post by: pnw_oldmags on November 29, 2011, 03:49:33 PM

There are two versions of the 47-48 K-F Parts Manual - one that is Red and Black and another that is Brown and Black both dated April 1948
(http://circlekf.com/kflit/Parts4804.JPG)

Anyone know what is different about them??  I always thought it was fading but this weekend I saw mint condition ones in both colors.

FYI Seth has let me borrow the ADVANCE K-F Manuals for the early years so I can now bring them online as well.

This one has no illustrations but it is interesting that over a hundred parts in this manual never made the 47- 48 Illustrated version published in April of 1948.

Been working on a little change to the KFCars portion of CIRCLEKF.COM.
It lets you drill down by Year or Class to a given K-F Model.
Once there you can link into the KF Directory / KF Handbook / or the Online Documents (so far the seven online Parts Manuals)  BY MODEL.
Give it a try and let me know what you think.

I have been working on KF Part Manuals and bringing them online.  Still working on 1949, 1951 Frazer and a few HJ manuals.  As each Parts Manual is entered I have been trying to determine which K-F Models that manual is good for.  Turns out when you know what parts are used on each model you can determine what accessories are right on each model.  Key your model like "k-532-4" for a Kaiser Manhattan 2-Door into the link and see what accessories come up.  I would really like your feedback.

Appreciate your Thank You.  I am new to this K-F thing.  I have been only collecting K-F paper for 20 years.  Why collect it if you don't share it.  I think I have about 4 left, maybe more if I do the specialty ones - Power Steering and HydraMatic Trany but nothing like that 400 page 49 Manual.
