Infographic: 14 Defunct Car Brands, and How They Failed
- DrScump 9y agoThis article says Kaiser "failed" in 1951, yet they were making Jeeps through the 1960s (until being acquired by AMC in 1970). My dad had a 1968 Kaiser Jeep. One of his favorite stories was that it had the original, unopened owner's manual in the glove compartment, and there was an order form for the full factory technical manual for $5 that was never redeemed. On a lark, he sent it in (this is in the early 1980s) and received a brand-new full factory service manual a few weeks later.
