Contact: Bob 406-300-2234

Deep Maroon 2 door coupe. Tan cloth interior. Manual transmission and a 6 cylinder engine. 38,708 miles.

The standard Chevrolet engine purrs and is always the first auto in the Peterson collection to start and run down the highway. We believe the car is all original, when the car was purchased for the collection, it still had the factory installed “paper” protection in the interior of the car. This car is a show stopper and everything is in excellent condition, as close to show room as it gets.

The car has always been garaged and cared for like a child. Condition is 9 of 10. This car has won many awards at car shows and is part of the 10 car collection of the now deceased Bob Peterson. This 76 year old automobile brings collectors to tears when they see and drive this classic.

This classic Kaiser beauty was completed restored in 1992. Some work is needed but overall is in great condition, always garaged. Kaiser introduced the Virginian as the “New family sedan that can be used as family Wagen.” The padded instrument panel was dubbed as a safety feature and the striking lines of the car was designed by the Kaisers engineer “Dutch” Darren. Kaisers were ahead of their time when it came to design and engineering for this show stopper. This Kaiser has been the proud winner of many Kaiser shows in the US.

This car is one of 10 cars in the now deceased Bob Peterson Collection. Peterson found this car discarded in a field and was later found to be the same car that Peterson used as his demo car when he owned an Kaiser dealership in Bozeman Montana. Condition is 7 of 10.

All documentation back to original dealer financing paperwork. Garage kept and covered its entire life. Still garage kept and covered. Mobile county Alabama its entire life. Zero rust. Extremely clean and very hard to find un-abused example of a TSi. Only very minor patina from original owner. The cover on the steering wheel seen in the pics is only there to protect the perfect leather wrapping. Frozen in time while in my possession. 2nd owner only put about 1,000 miles on this vehicle. Runs very smooth. Besides having traditional 3 point seat belts, the added bonus of being an '86 model is that it is the only year of any TSi that does not require the mass air sensor to run and idle smoothly. It can be unplugged and run with zero discernible difference. This is also the one and only year any TSi was branded as a Plymouth. Inter-cooled, limited slip differential, 4 wheel disc brakes, fully independent suspension. Tires in good condition. All original, numbers matching and well maintained. Records and receipts are available.
