course, all 1948 Kaiser or Frazer
cars have the new Goodyear 24-

So far no one has been able to more than approximate
the graceful exterior body lines. No one has come
near matching the roadability ... the ride resulting
from seats cradled between the front and rear wheels,
such wide seats with both elbow and shoulder room.
And none have the style features, the wide choice
of colors and fabrics.
