Cars For Sale & Wanted / Re: 51 Dragon for sale

I honestly don't have a price off the top of my head, maybe $5K with all the parts? I have an independent front suspension kit for it too. What were you thinking in price?

Thanks,
Nolan

I have a 1951 Dragon for sale. Still needs A LOT of restoration. I have repairs quarter panels, floor boards, and trunk pan.

If interested send me a message and I can send pictures car and parts and you can make an offer.

Thanks, but I live to far away to buy this as a parts car and get is shipped for just tail lights, unless they are will to sell just parts. But I don't think that is the case.

General Discussion / Re: 51 Kaiser Hub to Hub width?

« on: October 15, 2014, 07:08:56 PM »

Yes, you are right. I am talking with Fatman and Full Tilt about a custom mustang II, which isn't that hard, they just require the correct width.

Thanks you guys.

Kaiser Forum / 51 Kaiser Hub to Hub width?

« on: October 14, 2014, 05:41:01 PM »

Hey Everybody,

I have a 51 Kaiser and I want to put a mustang II front end on it. I was wondering if anybody know the hub to hub width or has done this yet. I would measure it myself, but the car is in storage about 2 hrs away. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I can get it working and replace the buttons but you need to get the buttons from Walker's Auto Pride I believe. I don't know what they cost but I replaced some for a fellow a few years ago - he bought them and sent them and the radio to me.
Due to the flimsy metal they are mounted one, it's just about impossible to get them to line up nice and straight as they did originally as the metal twists, stretches and bends when breaking the old ones off and pressing the new ones on. They were originally glued on and there's no other way to remove them. My opinion - buy the $75 radio that has the nice buttons and have it repaired. The buttons and labor to replace them will cost that much or more.

I think I might just send the one I have and purchase the new buttons. The guy on ebay wants $65 in shipping which is outrageous, when you can fit the radio in a $20 flat rate box. What would you think for cost to repair and place the buttons?

Thanks,

There was an NOS radio on ebay for a long time. It bit pricey but you don't see them very often that's for sure.
Oh, I just found the old listing, seems it sold -

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1951-1952-1953-Kaiser-Radio-Kit-NOS-New-In-Original-Box-Works-Great-See-Video-/311046452339?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item486bd03473&vxp=mtr


This one appears to be complete. I can repair it if need be
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1951-1953-KAISER-USED-WORKING-RADIO-with-GREAT-PLASTIC-PUSH-BUTTONS-COND-UNKNOWN-/121415037171?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c44e670f3&vxp=mtr

Now what do you mean by repairing it? Do you replace the plastic buttons or anything, or just get it into working condition?

Because if you fix them up, I already have a radio, I was just looking for one in better condition, see the attached picture (this is the radio in my car).

Thanks,
