My "51 Deluxe" arrived today

[51Deluxe]

I planned on shooting it driving off the trailer but wouldn't you know it, the camera battery died mid unloading. Got some shots later on though, just before retiring it to the garage. Got a big day planned tomorrow getting it tagged, cleaned up, installing seat belts, etc.

Question for the web masters: Is it possible to enable the forum for video embedding (so they can be watched right here on the forum)? I produce video for a living, and a lot of my contributions to the forum and club will be video related.

Looks great.  Hope to see it at some KF meets.  What state are you in?

[51Deluxe]

I'm in TN just North of Nashville and the plan is to make the trek to Jackson in Sept., so if you make that one, you should see me.

I plan on being there.  I look forward to seeing you.  Midwest meets are a lot of fun.

Wow!!!  Nice looking 51!  Curious about the paint colors.  What are the paint color codes showing on the data plate on the firewall??

Congrats on a great looking car!

Nice looking car indeed. One of my favorite KF color schemas. It also has the early style '51 radio.  Let me know if you need the radio fixed.

MBflemingkf, I still need to confirm but seller says paint code is for the dark green on the top. Whole car was painted that color but he decided to go for the "Dragon" look with the lighter bottom color, and I agree.

I've seen that combination on '54 Kaisers and I thought I'd seen it on '51 Kaisers as well. Don't know if it was a factory option but it sure looks nice in my opinion.
