Kaiser Forum / Re: 48 Kaiser with a Frazer interior?

« on: December 02, 2012, 06:38:12 PM »

I picked the car up yesterday and the shifter broke on the first drive. Can I replace the shifter or do I have to replace the whole shifter arm?

Kaiser Forum / 48 Kaiser with a Frazer interior?

« on: November 15, 2012, 04:29:06 PM »

I have an appointment to see a Kaiser this Saturday and all the pics look good however the interior is a Frazer interior. Serial # is K-481-060876, did these come from factory like this or is this put together? Any help would be great.  | MODEL|BODY|PAINT|TRIM|RD|KI|TR|RA|AN|

General Discussion / My love of the KF brand

« on: November 15, 2012, 09:17:46 AM »

It started when i was a boy of 14 years old looking for my first car. My dad's business partner Bill Payne offered me his beautiful 49 Kiaser for 2500.00 but i hadn't saved that much yet. I tried like hell to come up with the money before it was gone but as the saying goes I was a day late and a dollar short..... Bill unexpectedly passed away and I never got to meet any of his club members but I had the quarterly magazines Bill gave to me reminding me how much I loved these cars.... 11 years later I made a barn find in Matthews NC and have dreamed of what it would be when I finished. My 47 Manhattan sadly was suffering heart failure ( engine block was cracked ) and I have searched but have not found one. So my dad gets on the internet every morning in Fl and looks for cars/parts that would get this restoration back on track, I think he wants to ride in the Frazer as much as I want to drive it!! This morning he asked me if I knew if Bill's son was on the forum because he had a small collection of KF cars and may be willing to sell one or have parts. So I ask if Mike Payne I believe was Bill's son is out there let me know.

Thanks

Hello

This is my first post here, I am finally starting the restoration of my 47 Frazer and am in need of a motor. I don't want go the 350 route and change the originality of the vehicle please help locate one. I am in Winston Salem NC and would travel 150 miles if needed maybe more depending on the distance. Any advise or local shop recommendations would be great..... Looking forward to getting this beautiful vehicle back on the road and out of the jaws of a crusher!!!! Thank you in advance.
