    Hi, we just purchased our first "classic" car and are currently waiting for her to arrive from New York. We are very excited to being an owner of such a fine automobile:)



    Here's some of the photos of our "new" car-when she gets home, I'll take more (of course)

    Good luck with the car. It looks to be all there and in pretty god condition.



    What are your plans for it?



    Does it drive and stop?

    Thanks:) It runs, hubby says the clutch feels good and he backed it up and pulled it forward last night. It doesn't have any brakes:( but who needs to stop anyway?

    Glad to hear that it runs well.



    I would suggest that when you do the brakes, don't skimp on anything.



    I would also suggest that you either try to belong to a local Kaiser club or become a member of the A.A.C.A. You will find a wealth of information with these people.



    Keep us informed on the progress.

    My husband has a 1951 Kaiser that he want to sell within the next few days, do you know of anybody that is interested. otherwise he is sending it to the junk yard and I think that would be a shame.

    HELP ME PLEASE................My husband and I have 1951 kaiser, he is unable to restore it like he wants and we would like to get rid of it. The Junk Yard is offering me 75.00 unseen. Does anybody know of somebody that would want it for at least 2-300.00. It does run but it has been sitting for about 5 years, everything worked (radio) no body damage & no glass damage

    I'm not sure that enough people will see it here, so if you do not get a reply, try the AACA site.



    I can't see why you wouldn't get that much anyway. I hear of these auctions on some farms that the cars are being snatched up for that much as a starting bid. They can get that much for the car as scrap.



    Best of luck with selling it.

    Susan, Put the car on E Bay; Its sure to sell for more than those low prices if it starts & runs.
