Latest Addition To The Fleet
« on: December 04, 2011, 08:33:02 PM »
Well...it's tucked away here at home...the latest addition to the fleet. A fellow KFer in Buffalo NY decided it was time to let his early 47K go and I ended up with it. It's a typical NY car...plenty of rust, but included with the sale is everything...and I mean everything needed to put it back together. The only part I can that I will need is a rear bumper. It's the 3 piece unit so if anyone has an NOS unit...or part of...I would be interested.

Attached is a pic of the car.

An update on the 47...I have a source for the rear bumper but after looking the car over, I've decided to replace the trunk lid. It's probably worth fixing but if I can find better, I'm going to save myself the aggravation that I know will come with trying to repair what's there. I'll take NOS or good used but it has to be a 47 unit with the individual letter (for the KAISER name) slots in the lid.

I have the center bumper NOS for sure.  May have the ends around here also.  I have a good many 47 parts.  Come down and bring some trading parts so it won't cost you anything.
