"Will it Run?" Special: 1949 Frazer Daily Driver Project! Week 2

[@juliancrooks3031]

it's amazing how it's still running 6 years later with no sign of dying

[@patmclean1951]

This popped up on my feed today, I haven’t watched much of the old catalog but this was cool to see the history of your time with the Frazier

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

👍👌👏 Just watching this great Frazer series for the fifth time. Best regards luck and health.

[@bg147]

I liked the beginning. You could cut the lawn, walk the dog, and start the Frazer all in one.

[@gregorygosson2206]

This is the best channel on KZbin. I salute you all!

[@coldwarmotors]

+Gregory Gosson Thanks so much for saying so! Cheers.

[@robertshemory3541]

Excellent show keeps me entertained..❤️✌️😎👍cheers Scott.

[@John-v7f]

Beer, mullets and old bangers 😮

[@andyk3950]

Enjoy your uploads....nice to see a bunch of friends having fun, what the hobby is all about. The running commentary - gotta love that sense of humour. Keep the vid's coming! -Andrew

[@isaiahaydin6281]

i know I'm quite randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to watch newly released series online?

[@abrahamsalcido9174]

What a treat. Just fired right up. Thanks for sharing.

[@BlueRidgeJ79]

Aww man...can I just come and live in that Quonset hut and tinker on old cars with you guys? I'm a good firewood cutter and stacker, too.

[@Ka9radio_Mobile9]

Its so cool to go back in time and see Stella. Thank You for all your videos!

[@kimchipig]

The fact that all the ignition parts are readily available must help a lot!

[@fhionnsgarage4770]

Awesome Job!!!! Keep saving those old classics. I wish I had more space to do it, I have 3 oldies atm. A 1957 Caddi hearse, 1957 Buick special, and a 1965 Fury II dailly driver.

[@coldwarmotors]

+SIMI Parthenpaos Thanks for checking it out; nice to hear from others who keep this stuff going! Cheers from me and Stel.

[@fhionnsgarage4770]

+coldwarmotors Hey, would you happen to have a 60 amp alternator for a 65 slant 6 kickin around? The one with the external regulator? I need one.

[@fuzzwack1]

3 more old cold starts!! PLEASE,I love it!!

[@TomsJunkyard]

Fantastic. well done. Seeing you save great old machines like this really cheers me up. Also love how you don't restore them to death, which happens to so many cars. real old cars, brought back to life and DRIVED as they are - absolute perfection.I've done a similar thing on a smaller scale here in UK - pulled a '58 Wolseley police car from a yard and use it as my daily driver - films all on my channel.Great work, great films, thank you!

[@fredyoung9338]

I enjoy all you guys and the fact that your saving these old cars, I have a number of old useless cars that I enjoy. I always enjoy watching you guys making them move again. Stella always steals the show. Its not how nice they are its the thrill of finding them.

[@coldwarmotors]

+Fred Young Hey, thanks for the kind words; nice to hear from others who just like old cars in any condition!

[@tommynygaardjensen8398]

Nice square body truck 👍

[@smithjones3548]

Kudos for keeping old American Iron running, some day these cars will only be memories...

[@stevenking2980]

American vehicles log more miles than any other. Look it up. The ford 302, Chevy 350, and lastly and leaslty, the dodge 318. American v8 power and cummins and international, and cat and damn, we rock! Yanmar is badass too.

[@Re_Kitty]

+Steven King they don't make em like they used to, real shame for sure

[@Opigoink]

Just keep the great videos comming.......fantastic to watch....

[@nzsaltflatsracer8054]

You guys are just so fucking real, still out dragging cars home in the middle of winter & having a blast. This is quality Red Necking to be proud of. Cheers from Idaho Mate.

[@coldwarmotors]

+NZ Salt Flats Racer Hey, thanks for the note! Glad you liked it. Cheers from Alberta!

[@jmmccrory1387]

“I have more Kaisers than anyone I know..... I shall appoint myself Kaiser.” 😂😂😂 Of course no Kaiser is complete without a beer light.

[@19522007]

I said it before, i'm putting a trip to your farm at the top of my bucket list! Love the videos, we can't find good oldies way out here on P.E.I

[@coldwarmotors]

+Paul Farris I visited a car museum in PEI when I was there 20 years ago... do you know the one I'm talking about? Unless there was more than one?

[@19522007]

+coldwarmotors If it had a pink Caddy, i know the one. There are a few guys who buy and sell oldies from dryer climates. But they certainly know the market and its hard to find a good deal. Glad to see you saving all of these great cars, even the Lada. lol

[@joeboxer3365]

It's just so amazing that two of them ran so easily and the most complete ones too. I think these old clunkers are karmacly greatful to not be part of a Prius.

[@dannythomas8208]

sounds great!cant wait to see it move on its own power.glad to see someone saving the old ones.Thanks for the videos.

[@stevenking2980]

Those dents were popped oat. Damn northern neighbors. We love u. Nice videos. From North Carolina

[@stevenking2980]

Nice Volvo! Can't break one.

[@jimkey920]

No doat aboat it!

[@nateswiger6960]

Thanks for saving them!

[@andyfloyd8583]

Rewatching while I wait for Saturday.

[@markbehr88]

Very cool. I also really love the F series Ford truck pulling the Kaiser off the trailer.

[@richhanan218]

Hi guys maybe sometime this up coming spring would be a honor to be invited up to spend a few days there with you guys and check out your cool cars. Thank you love your videos

[@HamiltonMechanical]

"we are not rednecks...." yeah buddy :) come to east tennessee and see how well you fit in here :) I'll always stand by my statement that you guys are our Canadian brethern!

[@gedisdiop]

My neighbor had a '53 Kaiser Frazer Manhattan with a 226 straight 6 and a factory supercharger. The supercharger had a flying duck on it. 3 speed automatic. 2 tone green, in very nice shape. I was about 12 years old, and he let me drive it. It was a really cool car.

[@stevenking2980]

Sweet!

[@robertpradella6550]

I love that Ford pickup.beautiful!

[@toyotaphil54]

You guys are my heroes! Love the vids! :)

[@DoRC]

man I'm in love with that patina...I want one!

[@VintageTexas59]

Running smooth !! Congratulations to your new Kaiser collection.

[@LMacNeill]

Amazing what the correct firing-order can do. ;-)

[@TheCorvetteBen]

I WISH I had the amount of room you do, to bring home THREE parts cars...Maybe it is a good thing I don't because I probably would have already brought too many cars home!!

[@daredevil7442AUTOMOTIVE]

+TheCorvetteBen yea....I wish I had that kinda space.

[@coldwarmotors]

+TheCorvetteBen Yeah, things are getting a little out of hand around here...

[@granskare]

+TheCorvetteBen you need a TX ranch near w here you are...just get water where you work and y ou are good to go :)

[@Re_Kitty]

+TheCorvetteBen just rent a house out in the country or in loosely populated urban areas!

[@Ka9radio_Mobile9]

Now you do Ben!!

[@SSGTA440]

Just fantastic!!.....hope everything worked out well for you guys!

[@mikeschotte9480]

Grandad always said our family left Germany when the Kaiser showed up. :)

[@davec9070]

Great stuff here.... Here's a great little trick, fill up the float bowl on the carb via the vent, it saves lots of cranking and you will have your accelerator jets working for you.

[@Muisak]

dude, you guys are like canadian version of us good ole boys here in tennessee :) i'm loving the vids i've watched so far!!

[@Metalodeath]

I love this show u guys always save old cars

[@austx290]

Good ol' Gravely. My mom used to work at the plant they had in North Carolina.

[@MikeGuy993]

Great finds! love that old ford pickup too

[@coldwarmotors]

+MikeGuy993 Thanks! Yeah, Agent 318's Ford is a sweetie...

[@georgechambless2719]

Looks like you guys have a LOT of fun with old cars. Thank you for saving some of them! I just subscribed to your channel and am looking forward to all your videos. I'm from Texas and if I ever make it up there, I'll buy a lot of spark plugs and some beer for you guys...or a lot or beer and some spark plugs...your choice! Here's to old iron and keeping it going down the road!

[@coldwarmotors]

+George Chambless Hey, thanks for the kind offer... we sure do go through a lot of those items! Cheers from Canada!

[@Moletastic69]

Good installment of "My Classic Tire".

[@coldwarmotors]

+Moletastic69 Thanks! One of my favorite features to do, actually...

[@bigchike350]

That's a sweet old Ford pickup.

[@robertpradella6550]

Yes it is!

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

Well done saving this old automobile icons.

[@richhanan218]

Hi there, love the videos. Wish I was closer to be a part of your crew. keep the videos coming.

[@scootergeorge9576]

The Darrin badge indicates an early model. Howard "Dutch" Darrin had them removed on later models.

[@samhicks97]

Wow look at that pre-historic car fire right up!

[@r1lark]

Great series! Anxiously awaiting the next installment :-)

[@jackmitchell123]

Very cool series looking forward to the next addition. hope its going well!

[@coldwarmotors]

+Jack Mitchell Thanks! Next one is on the way soon!

[@Kinseydsp]

I wish I was there to help you, takes me back to my 1950 Chevy pickup pulled out of a field and driven for many years after a little work done to it!

[@takoma5]

Its aaaa RUNNER...Great update..i Think Stells happy now ;)

[@StivNagen]

Very cool, as always!

[@geronimothegreywolf]

keep up the postings about this car! nice job . cheers from :) Germany

[@morrismckinnon6047]

Amazing, tow start the car and mow the lawn at the same time! Who said guys can't multi task.lol Watched your latest vid of this completed, cool to see how far it's come from where it is here!

[@coldwarmotors]

Hey, thanks for checking it out! Yes, I'm very happy with how it turned out... I watched the first video the other day and I thought "What a heap!" Haha all the best from everyone here at CWMC.

[@merlyn59]

Hey, really glad to get this update! Thanks. I think they are pretty damned cool cars and you definitely scored a good runner. Stell, sure is a good supervisor keeping you Agents (reprobates? lol) in line...she's a YT star for sure. Looking forward to part three. Take care and Cheers from Sk.

[@coldwarmotors]

+Merlyn Sk Cheers from Alberta; we're definitely having (a little too much) fun with this little project...

[@Kinseydsp]

I Love it you Guys are the Best and The Dog Stella is so cool!

[@coldwarmotors]

+Kinseydsp Thanks for the note! Glad you liked it! Cheers from me and Stel!

[@bobbielski9591]

I remmber that this guy drove a kaiser to work every day !

[@daniellaris3772]

And she's still going!

[@bobmorris2905]

cool old ride .

[@flashdonat]

I'd love to have the 58 Dodge You have sitting in the weeds!

[@herbienbrian2]

Sounds real healthy!

[@coldwarmotors]

+herbienbrian2 Not bad for sitting around for so many years! Thanks for checking it out!

[@AudioMobil]

This should be enough stuff to build at least 2 running and driving cars! You're definitely the Kaiser of Kaisers! :)

[@coldwarmotors]

+AudioMobil Haha! I know, it's a little ridiculous having so many, but I couldn't resist them at the price. I'm going to use what I need to finish the Frazer and probably sell the 3 Kaisers so someone can build a running car from them. Cheers!

[@andrewgannon2508]

Love this show!!!!!!!!

[@coldwarmotors]

Hey thanks, and thanks for watching this stuff! Cheers...

[@robertnicholson7192]

Actually, the Kaiser was the lower-priced model, and Frazer was considered top of the line. Unfortunately, I remember these cars from "back in their day". They were rock solid and built to last, though, as you are finding out, which is what everybody "back in the day" already knew. There was a KF dealer in Tonica, IL, (look that up on your Rand McNally) who sold quite a few of these cars until KF folded

[@Postmandougie1970]

I remember those cars from Stan's yard; he wanted too much money when I was interested in them, I was going to try and build the blue one. In retrospect, it's just as well it didn't pan out...

[@coldwarmotors]

+Doug Frechette Hey Doug! Thanks for the note! Yeah, there is definitely enough here to put one together, but it would be a big job! Stop in soon, buddy!

[@MegaBruceC]

I'm green with envy. I want an acreage to collect a couple classics (about 1500 would work) and the spare time to get them all fixed while my wife plays with her horses!!! This working for Kal tire kinda sucks.

[@chrisheidt1836]

Man u guys are awesome 😎👍

[@2233golf2]

The giant poodle in the foreground is like : man,I am hungry and they play with these cars for hours....

[@rayford21]

Henry J.'s solution to model year overproduction was to remove and replace the old serial number plate with one of the current year and name them "special" with very little or no changes. This might explain items like the 4 vs. the 2 bumper guards you showed on the 2 identical Kaisers.

[@robertnicholson7192]

Have you seen the U-tube video of yhe 1951 Frazer Vagabond from Missouri? Fantastic automobile and a goal for your 49!

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

Watching this series for the 4th time. So what do you think? Do I love it? Yes yes yes!

[@MrShanghai34]

I was out on a delivery and I found the place where Ford Mavericks retire. Some guy had a yard full of them. they have the market cornered..... as well

[@bossdog1480]

This was interesting. I had never heard of this make of car before and was wondering why the badges were Kaiser but your heading said Frazer. A bit of Googling set me straight. I'm keen to see what you did with it.

[@NebukedNezzer]

one german farmer in my neighborhood spent lots of money at Hofferman's garage having his kaisers fixed. actually these cars are good cars.

[@chrishastings2665]

Here from 2022. Jim with the hair.

[@heyartbailey]

You guys were my heroes when I thought that all you did all day was screw around with a yard full of old cars, drink Labatts and smoke weed. I was really let down when I figured out that you own a business and have responsibilities ; ) Seriously, these videos are great, and I'm learning a lot!

[@coldwarmotors]

Hey, thanks for the note and for watching this stuff... Cheers from everyone here at CWMC!

[@robertsnyder5149]

I think I could get at least two of those going.

[@georgemunn4668]

I always looked at the taillights to check the year, the lights had the year on them

9:06 Roll yer own,do ya? Farfrompukin' !

[@stephenyaple590]

The year of the car’s manufacture is usually stamped on the tail light

[@jeffabney7629]

That's awesome! Maybe make 2 runners?

[@coldwarmotors]

+Jeff Abney Well... I'll be happy if I can get the Frazer on the road! Someone else can put a decent 47-8 Kaiser together from these 3...

[@robertnicholson7192]

Have you considered a few drops of Marvel Mystery Oil in the plug holes on those Kaisers to somewhat lube the engines before you try to turn them over? Might help free them up.

[@michaelbenardo5695]

The earliest cars only had 2 bumper gaurds, and had that "Darrin" badge. Also, the 46 - 47 cars only had a 1 barrel carb. The rest all had a 2 barrel.

[@Antiquetractorsetc]

Wish I had an antique car to be a daily driver

[@azautoxr]

Hooray !!!

[@michaelbenardo5695]

Checker and Kaiser Jeep also used the 226 engine.

[@dwortss]

Ya man ... I knew you would. Didn't think you would end up with a Mon. Wed. Fri. daily. Stel needs a white cap and whistle ... for when you guys get outa line. fume on boys =O

[@coldwarmotors]

+Stabit Cheers from us ,and Stel, of course!

[@washedupguy2759]

Will It Run? Yes! Will I eagerly await the next Frazer update? Yes!

[@coldwarmotors]

+MrMike Wells Hey, thanks for checking it out! Part 3 is getting edited right now! Cheers.

[@yost123]

The Special was a more deluxe version. The Darien script on the trunk was deleted after the supply of pre punched lids were exhausted. Dutch Darien did not like what they did to his design and wanted nothing to do with it. Are we going to see a Frasier, Kaiser resurrection being done at the same time?

[@coldwarmotors]

+yost123 Thanks for the note! Interesting... Well, I'm only using these three for parts til the Frazer is done... no time to try any more than that right now...Cheers!

[@connormurcar296]

hey i was wondering what part of Canada you live in because i live in Ontario and i don't know of any junk yards that have cars that are not to far gone to save

[@68air]

Kaiser--The official Fleet Car of ColdWar Motors. Come see our newest line up of cars today!

[@naughtyneill6507]

13:41 Instinctive f yeah!

[@natesteiner5460]

So the center body section was a recycled pre-war Graham which was in turn a recycled 810 Cord.

[@mrsgstd4637]

The way to tell a '47 from a '48 Kaiser is the script. The '47 had individual letters for K A I S E R whereas the '48 the letters are connected K_A_I_S_E_R. Early '47s only had 2 bumper guards on the front. The '47s had the 'Darrin Styled' script on the deck lid and only the early '48s did. It was brought back on the '51s. Only the earliest '47 Kaisers have "KAISER" on the hub caps. The rest of the '47 and '48s are simple moon style with no markings.

[@coldwarmotors]

+mrsgstd Hey, thanks for the information! Cheers.

[@frequencyfluxfandango8504]

WAHOOO ! GO Cold War Motors. For when anything else in life, just will not do. = Another delectable old car saga. Will It Run ??? ? ? ? ? ?

[@coldwarmotors]

+MungoidHen Hey, thanks for the note! I'm finishing the next installment ASAP! Cheers!

[@frequencyfluxfandango8504]

coldwarmotors EXCELLLLENT !!!

[@LarsonFamilyFarm-LLC]

Did you ever get a second Kaiser running out of those three?
