1953 Kaiser Deluxe
1953 Kaiser Deluxe
A couple of months ago, I bought this American beastie!
Re: 1953 Kaiser Deluxe
Cor, a Kaiser! Got to love some of the styling queues on these, like that possibly unique windscreen top line.
Re: 1953 Kaiser Deluxe
Oh my, I do believe that I just yelped like a puppy through sheer joy at the sight of that car! I've seen many things in my time on this planet and elsewhere, but have never, ever seen a Kaiser other than in books.
You, Kingsgate, are a total legend for choosing to own that amazing piece of historic Americana. Thanks for showing it to us.

Yeah, they have a totally unique style, don't they. I think there's only 2 or 3 in the UK!

Re: 1953 Kaiser Deluxe
I am getting a few necessary repairs done (the vacuum-driven wiper motor was knackered, swapping for electric one, changing from 6 volt to 12 volt electrics just to make electrical stuff easier going forward) and Waxoyling it.
Will probably run it "as is" for a while at least. I kind of like how it looks now, I am not sure I want to make it "look like new" its over 60 years old....

Re: 1953 Kaiser Deluxe
Definitely run as is for as long as you can tolerate, it looks amazing right now.
Re: 1953 Kaiser Deluxe
Fantastic looking car, you might want to laquer over the rusty patches to prevent them getting worse though.
