Nooooo......poor old Kaiser! :(

The three-bar grille and lack of a "sweetheart dip" at the top of the windshield both suggest that this is a 1949 or 1950 Kaiser. It also lacks the "sweetheart dip" in the windshield, which Kaisers didn't have prior to 1951. However, I can't find any Kaiser-Frazer products that with kind of bulge in the rear fenders, nor can I find any that have a beltline like that. Kaisers and Frazers were very streamlined cars, with windows that sat flush with the doors and hoods that were flush with the tops of the fenders.

Therefore, I'm stumped.

Whatever it is, it's amazing that you found it with the original engine nearby. I wonder how much of this car could be saved?

#1, There's something strange about this "Kaiser". It very closely resembles a 1951 Chevy. http://www.westtennrodz.com/1951chevy%20020.JPG

Right down to what appears to be "Chevrolet" script on the top of the grille. I think that's a 235 Stovebolt six on the ground. http://www.patricksantiquecars.com/gmcengine37-59.jpg

#2, The first thing I thought when I saw the picture was, "Oh, a 1949-1952 Chevrolet!" Then I read the description. Without the hood present, it really is hard to tell what it is.

#4, Steal it and put it on eBay :P

It's probably worth something if it's not all rusted to crap.

#4, Judging by the shape and the type of rear badge used, your trunklid appears to be from a 1951 or 1952 Kaiser sedan. Definitely not this car.
