In time K-F introduced hardtops, sedans, convertibles, an impressive

building Jeep vehicles instead of cars.The Kaiser-Frazer story is a tale of exciting ideas, bold plans, and
thwarted ambition. A heartbreaking yet uplifting allegory of men and
automobiles during the most exciting era the industry has ever known.
