« on: July 25, 2013, 08:43:55 AM »
Just got back from a car tour that happened to take me and my 51 trough Gladbrook Iowa we stopped to see an attraction and Dale looked me up said he saw a Kaiser on the street and had to find the owner . We had a nice chat he looked fit at 87 and I told him I would pass on his good wishes to all in Kaiser land

Gladbrook is pretty close to me, at least it's in Iowa.  You are on your way to the National?

I met Dale once at a meet in Missouri Valley, IA back  in '04. He had a very nice '53 Kaiser Manhattan there. I know he sold it years ago. I'm glad to hear Dale is still out there and well... and still interested in seeing Kaisers!

I am located in MADRID IOWA, which is northwest of Des Moines or SW of Ames equal distance 15 miles.  I get around Iowa and the midwest quite a bit and look forward to being more active in the hobby.

Wow that's nice.  Was that a reasonably common color for the Manhattans in 53?

Yes, I took the pic in Missouri Valley, IA. I didn't notice Dale is in the picture and Gene is standing next to him!
