Cheers or Jeers: 1954 Kaiser Manhattan

SUPERCHARGED ! Image 57 Years Ago purchasing a car with a Super Charger, it was unheard of. Stick with Overdrive the 226.2 Cu.In. Engine was taken from 118 Horsepower to a wooping 140 Horsepower, WoW ! Engines sure have come along way since then. Only 4107 of these were produced with a Factory Price of $2454.00 and

weighing in at 3375 Lbs. The Quality of the is unbelievable, this is either the Best in Existence or coming in at second. Rustfree Southern Belle, Originally from Texas, now residing in Clearwater Fl. and looking for a Fine New Home. Guys, this car is Quality from Top to Bottom, the Chrome, Trim, Glass , all Cosmetics and Mechanical, it is in Amazing Condition. You want to Win Awards, Turn Heads and Invest Wisely, here is your Opportunity. Driving this Kaiser is like 1954 all over again, its Wonderful ! Just click the key, she starts immediately and she purrs, so smooth, so quiet, clutch is smooth, shift it so nice and when you get out on the highway, just put her in Overdrive and Cruise with the best of them . What a Rare Collector Car to be Proud of and have the Fun of explaining to people at Shows really what you have - as 99.99% of the World have never seen one. The Trunk liner has some stains, we are having a Correct one being made right now.Guys, do whatever you want with your money, but of you want Investment, here it is and if not sold on here, this car goes to the Mecum Auction in Kissimmee Fl. next month where it will Break the Bank , but we would rather take less and sell it on here, life is alot easier for us .

Cool...I've read about them in CA, don't think I've ever seen one in person...interesting how the taillights extend way up the rear quarters...not unlike a detail seen on some cars today. What is that engine...a flat 6?

So that's 2 things Kaiser stylistically gave to autodom: super over-elongated taillights, and BMW's pirated "Kaiser kink". :D

Kaiser called them "Safety-Glow Taillights".
