Kaiser Forum / Re: Inherited Dad's 54 Early Special -- Need help
« on: August 19, 2010, 06:10:34 AM »Just curious, given the history of the car...what are the numbers showing at the various headers on the body tag. A lot of 1954 Early Special looking Kaisers owned by factory people are not what they seem. I know, My father had one when he was alive, and I have seen pictures and info on a couple others.
He purchased this car about 5yrs ago. It was originally sold in Florida. He always wished he had his original Kaiser but it went to rust on the family farm in the UP.

Kaiser Forum / Inherited Dad's 54 Early Special -- Need help
« on: August 18, 2010, 07:56:28 PM »
Looking for some good mechanical help in the Jackson, MI area.
Dad was a mechanic and worked in the experimental garage at Kaiser. He did all the work on the Kaiser in the time he had it.
Tried to get as much info from him about the car and what parts/pieces he had in the garage before he died.
Unfortunately not enough for me to care for the car. I'll do minor stuff myself but won't tackle/have know how for much more.
It sat for quite a while with Stabil in full gas tank, relatively fresh oil and so-so battery.
I replaced the battery and bought new plugs. Don't know propper gap or have tools.
Does not seem to be getting fuel. New battery/old plugs, and it would crank but not turn over. Couldn't smell gas like it was flooded.
Need help for next steps to take and someone to do the work so it's done correctly.
This car means a lot to me and I want it right.
Thanks!
