Projects Kaiser '49 - Ever seen custom?

NTAPHSE, I have followed your great work on the Kaiser'51 since you started!

In winter, I can't work

 

In holland the winter is over.... i am curious about the result.

 

Sorry, the winter is not over for me, I live in the mountain... and I can't continue on my Kaiser...

 

One side almost finished.

(...my box is very small, for to take images I had to use a wide angle lens... distorts...sorry!)

 

Loving this, looking forward to seeing more progress. Not sure I'm loving how thick the B pillar is now, but the proportions of the longer doors and shorter quarter windows is a huge improvement. Keep going!

 

Looks really great.

 

Nice work.

 

Nix, if you pm me monday i might have a air kit for sale at a bargain price....
Im the oppoiste coast, venice, and i guess shipping would be hella cheap comapred to US to here.

 

Just found this thread,very nice work,subscribed!Can`t wait to see more so keep them updates coming.

 

I love it!

 

Thats looking great!

 

The B-pillar is a problem, with tilt or restrict is difficult to have right proportions...
I still study...

Thanks, I still have to decide how to proceed with the suspension but would be a great help!

Looking great!!!

 

The B-pillar is heavy, but it suits the Kaiser. Sometimes an odd detail can become the "trademark" for a design. Something to think about.

 

Here's how Kaiser solved the B-pillar problem: The Kaiser Virginian.

They removed the B-pillar and replaced it with a little steel-framed window.
The pillar/window could be removed completely when the front and rear windows were down for a true hardtop look.

 

I like:

I thought a lot...finally I modified and narrowed the B-pillar...

 

That looks just right. Thinner than before, but heavy enough to carry the visual weight of the car. I like it!

 

Holy Crap James D!!!!!

 

The thinned B-pillar looks great, nice work.

 

I agree, good move!

Great to see some new pics!

 

a chopped Kaiser with a bigblock in Italy! how cool is that!!!!!
keep it going I hope you can get this on the street, I heard in Italy it is difficult to pass annual inspection if is not stock, so they will probably freak out when you roll in hahaha
