I have 2 sorta rare 1954 Kaiser Manhattan's survivors that are in very restorable condition. One is being used as donor car. The 226 supercharged continental motor has been partially torn down for rebuild. All parts for motor are there and from main car. head. supercharger. etc. The main cars body is in great condition. There is some damage on the right lower rocker panel but can be straightened. Trim is in good condition. It does have the grille and headlamp bezels. some original and some like new purchased to replace original. Floor and trunk are solid. Interior is all there but would need restoration to look new. There are very few minor dents on main car. Between the 2 cars all the glass is good. main car needs front windshield from donor car. There is literature. shop repair manual. supercharger manual. glovebox owners manual and miscellaneous. The donor car could be restored also. I've seen a lot worse being restored. Please ask any questions about the cars!! What makes them rare is the body style changed for this year with a new face lift and new 3 piece rear window. it came from the factory with a supercharger. MANHATTAN'S were discontinued mid 1955 year so not many were produced (4000 approx). Many 1955's were left over 1954's. Here's a big one. these 2 cars serial numbers are only 6 numbers apart (2495 and 2501). Serial numbers started at 1001 so these cars are in the first 1500 hundred made if that's worth anything . There was about 4000 4 doors made I believe which limits the number available today. They came from the Toledo plant. I HAVE CLEAR TITLES! One rolled off the assembly line and 6 cars later the other one did. Both cars can be restored but one is in better shape and previous owner was going to use other for parts. They both came from a museums car auction. Both are from northern west coast area. The cars are very solid especially the more likely restorable one. Almost all parts are there to make one awesome cruiser. This is one you don't see very often at car shows. It is unique. If you are serious about owning a unique sorta rare vehicle and preserving a car that has a very limited number this could be the one. Kaiser car company was ahead of the times in design but ended up not being able to keep up with the big 3. Please ask questions! I can provide more pictures. If there is anything specific you want a picture of I will be glad to take it. Buyer will be responsible for shipping and loading of vehicles. No warranties implied and cars are sold "AS IS CONDITION". Some minor parts may be missing.
