Early Frazer Manhattans were available as either four-door sedans or four-door convertibles and carried a look that was not shared with sister Kaiser models. A 226-cid, 115-hp six-cylinder engine was used, and the motor was mated to a Hydra-Matic transmission for the first time. Nineteen fifty-three saw a McCulloch supercharger standard on the Manhattan’s old flathead six, which boosted output to 140-hp. Even so, sales dropped to 4,325 Manhattans. By 1955, it was all over. Only 1,231 supercharged Manhattans, in both sedan and club sedan variants were built that year.
This Kaiser Manhattan is finished in an attractive, two-tone color combination of darker blue with lighter blue and is a factory-supercharged car. It reportedly was delivered with all available options, including an automatic transmission and power steering.
