I clicked on the photo to blow it up for a clearer view of the hood ornament. It was id'd on the flicker page that opened.

Thanks. I had no idea it did that. Now I know I have to be sneaky with the photobucket account. _________________ Prosit!

Nash and Hudson made AMC in the 50s. Kaiser joined Willys and went on making Willys and Jeep stuff before also being absorbed by AMC in the 1960s.
George Romney (Mitt's father) was chairman of AMC during this time. _________________ 2000 M Roadster

Kaiser was a premiere industrialist at the time he started making cars..he became mega sized during WW2 making liberty ships using mass production techniques never before used in shipbuilding and from that grew into aluminum, steel and cement production..as well as health care..making cars after the war was his finger in the eye of the Detroit boys, a west coast magnate taking on big auto..he ultimately lost and his empire dwindled,being cut up and sold off after his death...picture a Preston Tucker with money and success prior to getting into taking on Detroit, and ending up pretty much the same way Tucker did.. |

These are beautiful cars. Designed by Brooks Stevens it hardly has one straight line in it's body, and most of the bright work is brushed aluminum. _________________ '69 SingleCab

When I saw the photo of the car, before I looked at any responses, I thought that might be a Kaiser. Just something about that shape. I am usually not good with cars from the 50's outside of the bow tie versions. _________________ nothing |
