I'm a little slow but please teach me!
Yes, I probably don't want to go there, on the Graham Frazer thing. lol

Wikipedia should not be considered a factual source for any information. It is essentially a blog, or better yet, a stream that can be edited by anyone who thinks they know the facts. It's supposed to be checked by other readers but that is not always the case. Wikipedia is great reading but one should always take what's written with a grain of skepticism.

 I was only trying say  that, The "Muntz Car Company" was the name of Muntz's KF business in 1947 as it was in his "Muntz Iet" business  from 1950 through 1954. Do you not agree?

As yo can see, it is very solid, (see underneath pic). Almost no rust and not any rust through! Always being in southern California and Bend area Oregon. The truck was in the same community that the Band leader Freddie Martins Famous custom Muntz jet was found. I have good reason the same collector, who owned a wrecker service had Freddie's and  the 47 Frazer pickup in the same collection. I believe the guys name was Clark. More about this later.
Anyway I got off the subject.
More pictures coming

I have some of the fabrication of the grafted bed,

The early 1947 Kaisers and Frazers used hood props like those on your vehicle. They were later replaced by counterbalanced hood hinges. For many years, finding a hood prop car was a rarity, but lately more and more seem to be popping up.

Does the firewall mounted trim tag state Kaiser Frazer Corp or Graham Paige Motors?

[frankies frazer]

The trim tag says Kaiser Frazer
This is what Gary madriel (the owner of the green Posie truck) has been talking about. How the some of the first Kaiser Frazers were shipped to Muntz Motor company in California and these two trucks talked about are very early production numbers and they are both just a few days apart! I have documentation to back up Muntz received some of the first KF cars! Ironic huh

[frankies frazer]

Good eye, again Jake!

[frankies frazer]

Oh my! Very nice. And the garage, spectacular!!!

[frankies frazer]

A few pictures of the fabrication involved etc

[frankies frazer]

There was no tailgate when I got it but it could have at one time. The floor boards are solid.
Originally the car was gunmetal gray over claypipe gray but it looks like after grafting the bed, it was painted horizon or teal blue with a dark blue interior! Pretty snazzy for 1947

Whoever did the work knew what they were doing. The fabrication is definitely not a back yard hack job. This unit was professionally built. Now, to figure who did it!

By the way, your California dealer tag has value. Do not give it away!
