Hearse Social Group started

In celebration of our new Hearse, I started a social group for Hearse owners and fans to chat....

http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/group.php?groupid=460

 

I bet people are just dying to join.

 

I guess somebody had to say it

I'll join up Kerry. With the project I'm getting into I need all the support I can get.

Cool Al.

Don't let your first ride in a Hearse be your last.........

 

I think I'll wait.

 

Would that be like a support group?

 

Remember, The mortition is the last one to let you down!

 

Can an ambulance join? I'm sure some folks expired in there. Same body as an S&S hearse but has a heater in the back and medical cabinets.

 

I'll join up because hearse's where my first love

 

id love to have me a hearse

 

Sure !

 

I was trying to find information on a funeral car show held here in Cincinnati last year. Who says we don't know how to party! I read about it after the fact in the newspaper and it looked pretty cool. They have a car show scheduled at Spring Grove Cemetary for Oct. 10th, but last years poster looks like a regular car show. I did come across this message board link you all might like while trying to find info about a show.

I'm signed up.

 

here,s a picture of my old hearse from the hippy dazes

 

I'm new here but will sign up! Here's a few of my coaches...
1980 S&S Victoria


1967 Miller-Meteor Duplex combo

1951 Superior limo-style hearse (originally a U.S. Navy hearse & later converted to an ambulance)


Sold the '67 & '51 but picking up a '48 Henney Packard hearse next month.

 

What year is the White Caddy ? Looks to be close to mine. What is the bolt pattern on your wheels ? I want mine to look like that !

 

Tag me in! Chariots of the Dead show in Joplin coming up April 24th!

 

I joined once and quit as I couldn't find how to upload photos there. I can post them here so here ya go...

 

So... How come I didnt know about this till now? I would have joined like 5 seconds after it started! Count me in. -GothY-

 

Why quit because you could not post your pics ?

 

I had a 63 caddie Hearse. Can I join? I've been workin on this old guy who swears he's gonna get the 66 Pontiac flower car up-n-runnin again.
Funniest thing when I first bought the Hearse My friend wouldnt ride in it.
I told him the only mess I was able to find was petrified french fries under the seat.

 

White Caddy is a 1980 Sayer & Scovill Victoria. The wheel pattern is 5 on 5" (big GM pattern) and make sure you only go with 15" x 7" with a stock offset or they'll rub. Rear tires are 255/70/R15 & the load leveling system is "tricked" to get it up a little in the back & give a mean stance! Fronts are 225/70/R15 mentioned the wheel & tire sizes to save you grief... Caddy rear quarters are unforgiving & the 255's on mine are so close it's scary... but they don't rub.
Some more eye candy for you Kerry67...

 

this thread is just killing me!!

 

I have a theme song for you, bad ass one too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emf7gDJd0z8

 

That thing is just amazing to me. I LOVE it. Mine is an 87 but it looks pretty much like yours. I am surprised because I thought that they would have changed in 7 years. Mine is also not near as nice. But for $500 it is pretty good. Needs paint and whatever but it runs and drives great.

 

Wow thats some car. Definietly needs to be redone. Is that leaded glass in the rear?

 

Historynw, yes some of the very early coaches (both hearses & ambulances) had leaded glass rearmost windows. Here's one I photographed last summer at the PCS (professional car society) international meet in Flint, Michigan...

 

post some more pics from that show !

 

TELL ME HOW DO WE JOIN THERE IS LOTS OF THINGS I LIKE TO FIND OUT ABOUT MY RIDE

 

You guys are digging a hole...........nice

That 1967 Miller-Meteor Duplex combo is just plain nice.
