Hey Space I love your choice of a El Camino. I was in High School in 73 and one of my friends cousin's had a really wicked 70 El camino with the 396. That would take out about anything.........

** Hi `Jen, I'd like having a hearse (Great Party/Beach Surf'in Ride)
*** Thanks member's for posting on `Jake's Thread...Some great choices `if there wasn't a Chevy Monte Carlo
Thats my second dream car
I was actually going to own one...Dad had a late year model elcamino that he was going to give to me on my 16th birthday. Then....3 months before he came up to me and said he's selling it.
It needed some work, mostly body work but still....the car was gorgeous!

zippy: I've seen pictures of that before! Definitely looks fast... Looks more like Deaths race car

Jen i think you'll like this. A kid in my high school had a hearse as his daily driver. Was a unique ride for sure. He was really into the whole dark thing and i believed he works/worked at a funeral home.

Thanks `Jen, `Keane Member's for posting on `Jakes "What `if Thread"

There's some good prices on hearses & I'd drive one 4-Sure...
Most are low miles (just driven from the funeral home to the graveyard)
Here's one I found 4 around $7K with only 48K E.Z. miles

I don't know if that would actually be big enough for use as a hearse. But it would certainly be a cool idea. If you want to take your final ride in style, that's one way to do it.

I know this is kinda off the subject, but there's a local guy who custom made a hearse motorcycle. The hearse part is a custom made side car made of solid wood (stained and varnished), with all chrome fasteners and tie downs. This is not some backyard project. This is professionally done, and looks better in person. Pictures don't do it justice.

The owner started a business of offering his services for people who want to take one last ride. And was used when NHL hockey player Bob Probert died.
