Title: Kaisers built in Israel???
Post by: pjkaiser on November 25, 2016, 09:29:49 PM

I was at a meeting lately and there was a presentation on cars of Israel.    One thing mentioned was that the Kaiser Corp.  built a plant there in 1950 and produced Kaiser cars there.   How would you be able to tell the difference between cars built there and those built here???

Look at the Driver's Side A Post for the Serial Number.

Use the attached image from the KFOCI Handbook to determine where the vehicle was assembled.

The first car built was a 1951 Kaiser sedan.

Member Doron (can't remember his last name) in Israel has an Israeli-built Kaiser, I think.
