That Kaiser really does look nice. That "new" glass makes all the difference in the world!
Do take the engine apart and see if it’s fixable. The car is awesome. Would love to see it alive again.
I’ve got a couple of Toms that drop by my auto glass shop daily too, can be having a shitty day and they can still find something humorous to comment about or razz ya over! Tip of the hat to all the ol’ Toms out there!
Scott is definitely multi-talented; rescuer of hopeless cars AND bee whisperer! I bow to you, sir!
Never ceases to amaze me how these old cars clean up.
I'll never get enough of watching anything on the Kaiser or Frazer. An old timer that I knew in the 1960's still drove a Kaiser in his last days. He drove it to remote Canadian locations to fish at least once a year. From the eastern US. He claimed That the Kaiser-Frazers were the only car tough enough to handle those trips.
I was watching a video the other day about aircraft engines and apparently Kaiser had some input into that business as well.
I think he was a very forward thinking man and could probably have sorted out a lot of the problems we have today.
Restoring the original color was a bold and brilliant choice. It brings out the car's personality and pays respect to its history
The Kaiser will look good on the lot. I bought my Manhattan from an older gentleman. His boys had planned to restore it in their teens but lost interest and then it sat in the corner of a shed for years. Like yours, the seats were in sideways, door cards removed and all trim etc. in the trunk. All side glass broken like yours. The old man told me all parts were there but one tail light was broken. I got it home and put the interior back together and all parts were there right down to the door handle/crank pins. Next day feeling lucky we decided to try to see if it would run. Without too much effort we were driving it on the yard, the Hydramatic trans even shifted as it should, the car had been parked 25 years at least. It’s been a dozen years now and it’s still waiting patiently for me. These were well built cars. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Good luck with getting it on the roads again.These ALL deserve their time back with the traffic.
Love the Kaiser... here's my vote to make her a runner!
Honey Bunny was dressed like its winter. lol Nice job so far.
It’s only six weeks to the first snowfall up in Edmonton. Time to get your new snow shovel at the hardware store.
Love to see you try to get the ol girl running again!
Nice, the old car deserves a bit of love.
What a great looking car. Nice to see it getting some attention.
By all means get it running! If the '47 Chrysler was worthy of the effort, this '51 Kaiser certainly is! Looking forward to Saturday- Cheers!
I replaced the front, passenger side, door glass on my '47 Frazer, maybe a year ago. It was a simple job. I've owned this car for 38 years and it was a do-it-yourself, over many years, restoration - not perfect, but good enough for me. Mine is an early Frazer, built by Graham-Paige.
It's terrific to see a Kaiser get some love! Looking forward to much more. 👍
Thank God for Tom lol
That was some of the least complicated window installation i have gotten to see. Tip of the hat 🎩 to Tom and The Camera Operator for the assistance. The lighting Gary contributed to Same Old Shit Studios will find good use i'm sure.
Best Wishes to everyone at Cold War Motors Scott and Thank You.
Great show. I really like the Kaiser! It would look spruced up and with new tires.
Kaiser.... still lots of things to like. A vehicle that comes apart for repairs simply.
It’s a real testament to the quality of Kaiser engineering that a window replacement could be undertaken with such relative ease some 73 years after manufacture. Of course, Scott’s deep parts inventory made that possible as well. Have to say I prefer CWM’s “high end old car collection” over what’s found in Leno’s Garage which are a tad too pristine for my taste. Also appreciated seeing the Kaiser parked nose-to-nose with a Hudson which seals a long lost point in time. Well done!
I love the rear vent windows on the Kaiser! Such a considerate design feature for dart smokers.
Vent windows/quarter lights generally were great and I lament them being absent from modern vehicles.
Tom makes me 😂. Love the way he tells stories . Looking forward to Saturday's show. Cheers ❤️✌️😎👍
My older brother first car was a 1951 Kaiser just like this one you got Scott.....He my brother died about 9 years ago.....Thanks Scott Honey Bunny and Tom....OF course the happy Dog Frankers.....Your friend Old F-4 Phantom ll pilot Shoe🇺🇸
Love that "widows peak" detail on the tail lights and both front and back windows
Very satisfying project, Scott. Glad to see the Kaiser getting some love with solid windows now and some of the foofoo removed from her. Absolutely get her outside and do an investigative move on the engine. Do your magic on it. Do a bore scope inspection through the spark plug holes and see what you find. As you said if no resolution, pull the head and go from there. You had amazing success with the old Chrysler, do your same magic on the Kaiser. Looking forward as always to Saturday!
LOL!! Tom NEVER fails to crack me up! LOVE his sense of humor!
I love when all the old parts magically are removed and all the new old parts miraculously fit as required. Hope to the Kaiser up and rolling outside to see the group unstuck the engine. More good times on CWM to come. 😊😊
Thanks for the lights Gary!
Nice to see the Kaiser get some attention. When you get the Kaiser moved maybe we can take a closer look at the Hudson in front of it.
What a pleasant surprise to see this lovely old car getting some love. It would be fun to see you pull the head and unstick this old engine and be able to drive it around the yard.
Always loved the style of the windows. When you could tell the make of a car. As a young kid (in the late 50's) I would sit at the front window of my fathers dinner and name the cars as they drove past for hours.
Thanks for the show.
I remember those days when cars did not look like clones of each other.
Our 'game' growing up in the 70's, was to tell the make and model of a vehicle from it's lights,headlights,markers, and tailights, from as far as you could see them.Vehicles from the late 50's to late 70's were game, and so were we. I hardly ever missed.
@@bryduhbikeguy We did the same in the 50s. 46-48 were the hardest to guess because they changed so little from year to year.
Life was good in the auto industry before wind tunnels ruined bold styling initiatives. Fortunately, this development did not affect Kaiser, Nash, Frazier, Hudson, Studebaker, or later on, American Motors. Unfortunately, for the wrong reason.
Good job Scott, Tom, and HoneyBunny! That will be a good car again. Cheers! Todd the retired trucker.
Great old car. What a difference a few hours can make. Cant wait to see if the old flat six will come back to life.
always love watching your videos when I have time. I started watching when you were messing with the 49 Frazer because you were the only video resource I could find. I bought a 49 Kaiser deluxe in 2019 when I turned 21. I just got it in the body shop for splice of the front driver corner up to the lead seam, body mount repair, blast, prime, paint, interior and chrome before I get to enjoy it again. if you ever need kf parts our club has plenty of helpful people even to non members. your videos helped me not be so scared of the process of doing a complete mechanical, suspension and body/interior restoration.
TY for sharing your story with us. That's Awesome that you'd find your dream from this Nightmare channel ;) From cobwebs, comes the silk purses...
Kaiser fun 😊 Scott,Honey Bunny, you did a great 👍 Job on the Kaiser
I'm glad 😊 the Supervisor showed up to straighten you out, Scott.😅😂
Re: Kaiser rear vent window. " I forgot I had that!" Definitely been there with project cars. Usually after I'd bought another part to fix the same thing. Old time quality fasteners and steel instead of plastic and push pins makes for easier and far less frustrating repairs.
Amazing how easy it is to work on cars that old. Simple is better.
That car was really simple to work on. Having all the correct parts helped, of course. In my book that would be a level 0.5 tidy as you only did the driver's side. Looking forward to whatever else you decide to do to it. All the best, Mart in England.
You are right! A level .5!
It’d be nice to see this turned into a daily driver 😊
Big thumbs up for thinking about the Bees 👍👍
You’ve been making better progress when Tom’s on hand to keep you in line! The Kaiser’s a fine old girl! See you Saturday !
What a beaut! Definitely would like to see a will it run with you and the boys one sunny afternoon. She does shine up nice with a level 1 tidy for sure.
I have always liked those cars. Good looking machine!
assembly line guys had a good job, goes together nice.
It's great seeing this car get some attention. I agree completely about their styling. Can't wait for the step-down Hudson you have stashed to get some love, too.
My friend Lorne owned a 40 Buick Roadmaster 4 door convertible that he bought in the 60s making him the second owner. It was original except a new top and a repaint in the 70s. He was restoring a Kaiser Manhattan from three cars before he passed away. I’m not sure who got his Buick but I hope it’s being well cared for. There’s maybe a handful of them left in the world.
Even the base models had such beautiful details. Tom is the perfect ring master of the shit show. I would love to see that one cleaned up and running. So many cars, so little time. Cheers!
I love Tom's appreciative "Ooooo...Aaaaah! Upon seeing that the window has been replaced and the mechanism works at 10:35. Edit: 16:32 "Ah, ya don' need all that crap." LOL😅
She sure shined up. That glass job didn't look too terrible. What a treat!
The Kaiser door design looks like they were about 30 years ahead of their time. The top level of the doors cuts high into the roof line and effectively reinforces the roof, with the rain channels appearing nearly flush - this styling trend didn't become common in car design until the 1980s, when aerodynamics became more of a priority.
So cool keep going on the Kaiser!!! Save it Get her running.
Great Thursday video!! Very happy to see this one get some attention, & while I know you need the space, its a shame to see it go outside.
HOWEVER- I'm all in for a will it unsieze video!
Kudos for looking out for Frankers, btw!!
Cheers all
That's great how quick that all went. Imagine what a garage would have charged! Love to see it run!
Whoopie! The ignored Kaiser finally gets some long neglected attention! This is one of the cooler styled cars from this time period. And the legacy of this car is still around in the form of the Kaiser Permanente health care network. I think that’s a very good connection to today’s world and people.
Yay! I've wanted to see this thing given some attention since I started watching the channel.
Brings me back to the days when my friends and I were fixing up a '54 (Early) Special-- a '53 Manhattan with a '54 front clip. As you removed the window channels in the video, I remembered where every screw was. A big thumbs up for fixing this one up-- The Saddle Bronze color looks great when it's nice and shiny. Just saying!
Come for the tidy's, stay for the glow~
Awesome Kaiser. Cool cars, for sure .
Amazing how well it looks with just a little tlc. The Kaiser is so simply made, no wonder it was a cheaper car. I'm sure your rubber arm could be twisted into getting it running. As you said, it's easier to move cars under their own power.
Nice car to put the inline 8 in just saying. Love this era of cars.
Well let the show begin hope the folks in Jasper AB stay safe, See you this weekend!
Hello from Memphis... Living in North Dakota In the early 60s my Uncle used to pull us kids around behind an old Yamaha snowmobile on the hood of a Kaiser...thanks for the memory
That's a great memory!
Viewed from France, that is one of the most exotic car I could possibly imagine. Hope you'll have it running one of these days !
A great video I am ready for Saturday see everyone then cheers 👍🙂❤️
Amazing how just some little improvements can make a big difference, not to mention inspiration eh. Cheers from Australia.
"Now it just needs tires" ...and it gets my suggestion for next restoration. Such a deal, no splicing. 👍
Somebody like me would get her going and make a daily out of her! Love the old Kaiser's, thanks for this!
So great to see everybody getting their turn at the "Operation Clean-Up-The-Bunker" and our newest Agent is this week's MVP... Bonus parts! The quarterlight really brings the room together. A very good argument for "Don't touch it until you have everything you need to put it back together"... we can see how easy to remember where that pesky window clip is, when you just put it down five minutes ago, haha!
I always liked those Kaisers. I could see that one running down the road with a newer powerplant.
Earlier this week it was blast-furnace hot. And now, HB is wearing a touque and a parka. Alberta: If you don't like the weather...
That Kaiser is a beaut. Dig that crazy drop beltline.
Very nice to see someone saves some of the 'orphans', a lot of junkyards would have crushed a long time ago. They to, deserve to live and kept on the road!
😊woow, the 51 Kaiser is a fun and exciting project, would love to se it back on the road again, Cheers guys🎉
One of my dream cars!
Id like to see the kaiser restored👍👍
Me too!
Me three!
Me four 👊😎👍
That’s a sweet ride!
❤ Luv this, more of that. Thanks you so much from Sweden 🇸🇪
Glad you enjoyed it!
That's a lovely car. I'm looking forward to seeing it run. Cheers from England
Sweet and no one got stung!!
That’s a good video Scott! Looking forward to Saturday . 💯👊👍💕
Fun little project!
That was amazing! I love how you preserve these lost cars. Thank you. Cheers!
Time to "unshed " the shed and reveal the Kaiser special!!
I really have to admire your "get up and go " Scott, I guess when it is something you love it's not really work. Wow, those studio lights are the bomb! really nice addition to the production equipment[grin] The Kaiser has vent windows in the back ? Man that a nice feature for good ventilation whilst going down the road .
She looks good already! Can't wait to see it shined up. Thanks as always.
What a great old ride! simplistic and functional.Definitely a candidate for the will it run show. Take care See you Saturday.
We have 2 1952 Kaisers in our inventory. One was my business partners dads he bought brand new in Alaska when he was in the Army. It needs alot of tidying but it runs. The other one is a older restoration that needs a refresh but still shows well.
Nice to see one of these in such decent condition. Hope you can revive it to a running car again. These models were among some of the nicest looking cars of that era. An elementary school principal I knew had a 1954 model with two-tone white & metallic green which was also one of the top line models. I remember that the interior featured bamboo trim and some other neat features. Too bad that they had such a poor powerplant. If the company could have held on and developed a V8 engine and some body updates they might have made a real success of there presence in the market.
My grandmother had one in Texas when I was 10 years old in 1965 and we rode around in that car all over everywhere and it was loaded with all us kids. Some of the stuff I still remember.
Scott, re-windowed and shiny in 20 minutes! I can only hope it was heavily edited for time or I'm a piker! Never replaced glass in any of my cars in less than an hour+! Great tutorial! Cheers and thanks! Hoping to wear my 37 Chevy Tee soon!
I would love to see a restore with paint on this car. It reminds me of every cool car depicted in Bugs Bunny cartoons growing up!
So dang nice to see Tom come in and give his giggles and help with that ole Beaute.He didn't swear a damn bit either,that we heard. WTF??'Honey Bunney's being there tamed the Scollalry advice?? Well, shoot...Next week he'll be wearing a rainbow t-shirt and phart laughter...
Hi Bry! I edit the most colourful conversations out of the Thursday videos, but not the Saturday ones... Cheers!
Yes please get it running.
Glad you’re tidying up the Kaiser it’s a great looking car.
Such a cool car --Wing Windows front and back??-- awesome. Definitely got to get that one running. Cheers 😊
That Kaiser shined up real nice thank you for the video see you on Saturday
Was just watching DDSpeedshop and Dan mentioned that he might call you for advice. Always ask the master.
Very nice!
Having extra eyes and hands around makes things easier. You two will get a lot done working together. 😊
Cheers
Too cool, I've always loved these cars and love the styling of them. Someday I'd love to have one.
For those of you who aren't members of the SBS(Sad Bastards Society) it is mandatory that we have multiple projects to constantly move between to abate the boredom. As always, great show thanks for that.
That would be an awesome runner!!!
Lovely old car Scott. I've been rewatching your oldest videos. Hoping you would come back to this car. I have a 1953 Dodge Coronet I've been playing with lately. Thank you for your efforts. Always a good show. Cheers - Kory
