In 1950 when sales were good plans for the 1953 line included a possible Kaiser
convertible. Evidently at least two prototypes were built up from 1951 coupes. The car
illustrated, owned by Ed Hausgen, is the only known survivor. The car was originally yellow,
but the car and wire wheels had been painted blue by the time Ed purchased the car. Over the
years a large number of Kaisers have been customized into convertibles. Many of these
are just hack jobs, but the great styling of the 51s holds up well in the top down mode!
