The very last thing you can do for someone you loved is to give them an upscale ride. It's why funeral coaches are built from luxury cars, and people are always surprised to pick up on those sentiments when they get close to a coach. I have a '73 Cadillac S&S Victoria, bought years ago to carry my country band's PA-- which it did VERY well, and I still take it out every couple of weeks. Gets smiles and "thumbs-ups" every time. Probably worth noting that after about 1978, funeral coaches were built from production Cadillacs, and stretched at the coachworks, so they have the stereo, cruise, tilt-and-telescope and all the other consumer bells and whistles. Before that, they were built on special long factory chassis, and supplied by Cadillac with only the steering wheel,dash, front clip, and 2 door-size rear fender panels. Everything else was fabricated by the coachbuilder, so old hearse(and ambulance) doors are nonstandard in size and the upholstery is definitely nonstandard. My coach is radio-delete, no tilt wheel, no power seats, and if the original owner hadn't opted for power windows, it'd have window cranks.
Funny story...when I was in High School working at a Pizza Shop one of our delivery drivers picked up a hurst and we had some customers refuse there food.
Have a 94 Buick S&S hearse that is a daily driver and it really is one of the best driving cars I've ever had. It weirds a ton of people out, but once they ask some questions and find out the casket in back isn't full of severed heads they generally warm up to it.
That's a nice ride. I've got a 73 I've been rocking for several years now. When people ask "why", I tell them they were out of 69 Camaros and Mustangs so I had to settle for a hearse. Put some nice wheels on it and it will look slick.
Dude, love this! And, I feel ya with those curtains in the back windows. That's a great looking hearse and I'm sure it was a great buy too. These are on my bucket-list of cars to get at some point. Outstanding!
Good way to look at it... would be a great road car for 2 people traveling cross country and you could fit plenty of luggage and all the souvenirs you find along the way
I just bought a 92' Miller-Meteor. I just wish pricing here in europe would be a nimble as in the U.S. and it's not close. Not even in my country. 7h drive coming up.
There's a dealer 40 miles or so from me that deals in used hearse and limos. Went there a couple years ago and looked around. The guy that owns the place even stopped by my house with two used limos. They were a little rusty underneath so I didn't buy. Think I'll stop there again and look around. Test drove one of the limos and it had a sweet ride
Under 4k for that beautiful car. I never get deals like that. I'm a hearse kind of guy. Nobody will mess with it. I can't get the grocery boy to put my food in my car. I love it. My jeep Grand Cherokee gets way worse mpg with a 4l six.
@@josemartin598 it was well before I did RUclips. Actually had a 72 chevelle SS (clone) wagon before the 67. I liked it a little better than the 67 truthfully
@@ExtremeAutomotiveAddiction oh no! I was going to suggest converting it to a camper. There would be plenty of room for everything except an inside shower.
I'm doing a movie next year with a teen party animal who drives a hearse. The hearse will be a featured often in the movie. Do you know where I can find others that may live in New Mexico so I can start looking to rent one? I want a used beat up one that works.
Not connected with anyone in New Mexico but I bet if you start putting the word out on social media and Craigslist etc you will find what you're looking for. Good luck!!
My sister and ex brother in law used to be in the funeral business. He always wanted me to go on road trips with him transporting bodies. I always had something much more important to do.
I stumbled across your video on selling the GMC Typhoon. I thought about asking you if you were interested in buying a hearse. Looked at your channel. Looks like you already bought one. Well, I'll just mention this anyway. I need to sell mine. It's a 77 Caddy S&S Victoria. BTW, remove the curtains and you will solve the visibility problem. I drove mine for 5 years before I did this.
Thank you for watching. I'm actually thinking about selling my hearse. It just sits at the workshop and never gets driven...havent even put a tank of gas through it yet. Great cars tho
They also have these dressed up as ambulances. Well before the Federal Govt regulated Emergency medical services. The undertaker was also the ambulance driver. Can you imagine the company who is responsible to get you to the hospital alive, also benefits financially from your death.
I have a 2010 Cadillac hearse, it totally freeked out everyone on my block when I pulled into my driveway, even the kids next door came to see what was going on.
Thats so cool! Yes the car had a lot of people asking "why?". Now the car is in the hands of a guy who is building it into a hot rod. Its gonna be amazing once he is finished with it. Enjoy your car!!
@@ExtremeAutomotiveAddiction I've been looking for a hearse for a long time, even went to used hearse dealer. Hate doing things over the internet. I wish they just sold them out front of the funeral home. I guess they think that's tacky
I want to get an old Cadillac hearse, and put a 572ci in it with side exit exhaust. Then give it that muscle car stance and paint it with line-x and get all the skull accessories. lol 🤘☠👍

That's a great DD... yes hearses are definitely a conversation piece
Keep the gas gauge over a quarter tank. Odd are like a lot of coaches of that period, quarter tank means EMPTY!
That's a nice ride. I've got a 73 I've been rocking for several years now. When people ask "why", I tell them they were out of 69 Camaros and Mustangs so I had to settle for a hearse. Put some nice wheels on it and it will look slick.
That's a good one, yes people ask me that same question as well. They are just cool in their own right and such an incredible ride.
Awesome! Something quirky to go along with the rest of the collection. For sure would make an awesome Halloween display
Dude, love this! And, I feel ya with those curtains in the back windows. That's a great looking hearse and I'm sure it was a great buy too. These are on my bucket-list of cars to get at some point. Outstanding!
Thanks a lot!!
A Superior Hearse next to a Delorean! My dream garage!!!😍😍😍
You're my kinda people lmao
Look at it as a Cadillac station wagon. Very nice and to me, a great deal!!
Good way to look at it... would be a great road car for 2 people traveling cross country and you could fit plenty of luggage and all the souvenirs you find along the way
I had to tell people, It's just a car. But don't say bad things about it where it can hear you. Bwwwaaahhaa

just picked up a 1995 fleetwood hearse 143K miles, everything works $2200, Awesome vehicle, hope it doesnt die on me har harr
I drive a hearse. I met my wife because she also has a hearse lol!
It was meant to be right there lol
Currently looking to buy one lol
Love it. Your next car should be a Chevelle SS wagon, a conversion van, or a classic suburban.
Actually had a 67 chevelle wagon...I like wagons
@@ExtremeAutomotiveAddiction I'll find the video lol
@@josemartin598 it was well before I did RUclips. Actually had a 72 chevelle SS (clone) wagon before the 67. I liked it a little better than the 67 truthfully
@@ExtremeAutomotiveAddiction I noticed you buy really good examples of vehicles. Have you ever restored anything?
@@josemartin598 a couple partial restorations but it's more cost effective to but them pretty much done
Maaaaaan I wish I’d find that deal!!
Bucket list
Was this thing leaf spring ? Looking at one for a project.
Not too sure. Never crawled under it and checked
Just bought a 94 caddy hearse with the LT1 engine and love it
Very nice!!! 👍👍
These cars creep me out but for some reason I want one.👍
Right?!?!
If insurance isn't too much, you could make extra money by providing livery services to your local mortuaries if this car is in such good shape.
Ha ha...yes i could have. I have since sold the car and it has been built into a hot rod with a stroker motor and line lock. It is pretty cool 😎
@@ExtremeAutomotiveAddiction oh no! I was going to suggest converting it to a camper. There would be plenty of room for everything except an inside shower.
@@brendanoren5047 simple, just slide a mattress into the back and you have a camper
@@brendanoren5047 you can put the luggage inside the storage cubby under the load floor
I agree the 50’s hearse would be a cool car to own!
Definitely...and pricey!
I have a 70 Cadillac hearse 𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙘𝙠 my channel out
@@djchilliebowl Richard, what a shame it is a Miller-Meteor. You should have held out for a Superior or get the best in an S&S.

Nice car but ya gotta get rid of those black wall tires, would look so much better with the right tires.
They also have these dressed up as ambulances. Well before the Federal Govt regulated Emergency medical services. The undertaker was also the ambulance driver.
Can you imagine the company who is responsible to get you to the hospital alive, also benefits financially from your death.
I know, doesn't instill a lot of confidence huh??
My bucket list vehicle is a 1932 Cadallis Hearse, so no I don't this it is morbid or weird

Plenty of room to sleep
