First time hearse shopping... advice?

[Mohawk Freak]

You scored good on that one. Drives nicely?

[Mercury]

What, no undercarriage shots?

Not till I get my hands on a camera with a flash or something. Mine just look like blackness. Scary Guy said he would help me take some pictures Saturday, and I will probably try again this weekend after it stops snowing.

It drives beautifully!!
I will never drive a small car again.

It's snowing there already? Holy misery. I bitch about the winter here, can't even imagine what it's like there.

[Mercury]

winter here is very, very hard on cars.
and a little bit hard on your soul
I'm really hoping that my hearse will fit in my moms garage. I have to go out and measure it today.
If not..... I'm on the lookout for a carport or a car cover.

To join one has but to ask, live within the appropriate distance (Detroit and 50 miles outside within Michigan), and actually own a hearse. The area limit is to try to make sure that people in the club are actually close enough to attend events regularly. Also yes the aim is to actually get together in real life and make friends with a similar interest in hearses.

As far as parking it in the garage goes, all you can do is try. I've seen it done with no more than a few inches in front and back. Finding a car cover that will actually fit it can be a pain too.

Looks like you got a great deal. The interior looks great and you have a pull out table . Does the rear windows roll down? I see there are a couple switches on the inside of the rear door. Most hearse after the 80's didn't have inside handles in the rear.

I'm not sure about the rear window. I just took it in to have work done on the break lines so I have not had much time to click through all the buttons yet

i hope to see more pictures soon

That's the best part about getting a new car, is you get to "discover" all kinds of stuff on it.
How does it drive/ride? Have you named it?

[Mercury]

it drives pretty flawlessly now that the brake lines are new
My mechanic said it was a great deal for the condition of the vehicle, though he would not have gone for a hearse himself.
Even he thought it drove beautifully.
It's name is Iorek Byrnison
