1951 Kaiser Deluxe

1951 Kaiser Deluxe Sedan - Amazing Survivor - Drives Excellent 1951 Kaiser Deluxe Sedan. Understanding this car, and the option package that provided its name is essential before discussing the car itself. In 1951, Kaiser-Frazer stylist Carleton Spencer was tasked with developing a luxury option package for the Kaiser sedan, possibly due to the discontinuance of the high-line Frazer Manhattan sedan. Spencer teamed with a New Jersey supplier to create a new upholstery theme using patterned, pleated premium vinyl, nicknamed “Dragon” because of its resemblance to alligator hide. The resulting models, while still Kaiser DeLuxe sedans, were called Dragons in honor of the trim package. This one-year-only package was followed by a yearlong hiatus before the Kaiser Dragon became a standalone model in 1953. This 1951 Kaiser DeLuxe Dragon is considered a “first series” Dragon because it lacks the 1953 model's vinyl roof. It's unknown how many 1951 Kaisers had the $125 option package, but total DeLuxe sedan production that year came to 56,723 units that model year. This example appears to be mostly all original besides one repaint and has what is apparently its original Dragon interior. The back of the front seat, and sides of the front and rear seats all have dragon material. We recently drove this car on a 2hr trip to our dealership and it drove excellently!
