This is a 1952 model (the 1953 had small wings on the sides of the headlight bezels). By the simple side trim it's not a Manhattan, but I couldn't find the diferences between Virginian and DeLuxe... |

The correct name is Kaiser-Frazer, right? |

The Frazer (1946-1951) was the flagship senior line of upper-medium priced American luxury automobiles built by the Kaiser-Frazer /vehicles.php?make=Frazer&model= |

Kaisers and Frazers were always two distinct automobiles. Originally, the Kaiser was planned to be a front wheel drive vehicle, and the early print ads in magazines proudly announced this. It didn't turn out to happen. The two cars were very close in design and execution, with the Frazer being more expensive, with noticeably more luxuriously appointed interiors. At first the magazine ads mentioned, in small print; "Kaiser...Product of Kaiser Frazer" and "Frazer...Product of Graham Paige." |

It shows. One of the best documented cars on the site. Love the different views showing every angle. -- Last edit: 2012-06-21 03:58:51 |

Just to clarify what a 1952 Kaiser Virginian is/was; Kaiser-Frazer had appoximately 5600 1951 Kaisers, and approximately 7000 1951 Henry Js that had not been sold by the end of the model year. To get dealers to take these cars, they modified them by changing the clear plastic trim on the hood ornments to black plastic and then hung a Continental spare tire on the back and called them 1952s! The Kaisers got left over 'Virginian' scripts from the left over 1949/50 Virginians and the Henry Js got 'Vagabond' scripts left over from the 1949/50 Kaiser Vagabonds. Pretty clever. Another post states "Virginian had the large size lower body rocker panels as on the Manhattan" - not true. The 1952 Virginians were 1951 Kaisers with said modifications and some were Deluxe models with the wide trim and some were Specials with the thin little trim. The script made no distinction as to whether or not the cars were a Virginian or Vagabond Deluxe or a Virginian/Vagabond standard (Special)models. |

So this car is a 1951, not 1952 as listed? |
