Title: '51 Kaiser for sale
Post by: retroguy on September 11, 2020, 08:38:39 AM

A 1951 Kaiser 4 dr will be offered at Meacham auction Sept 26-27 in Carlisle, Iowa.  A complete, somewhat rusty original car that appears to be all there.  Saw it on Proxibid. Lot 226c,  79 of 100.

Just an FYI, it would be nice to supply the web address for the car to make it easier to find the car to look at.

It looks like a very nice original Kaiser.  I did not see signs of rust in the photos.

Considerable rust, but repairable.

I don't see a radio in it.  Maybe it's hiding?

In my neck of the woods, this is a drive-it-as-is level car. The body is much better than most of the barn find chariots in my area. But my money, literally, is on the Riviera next door.
