My 56' Hearse/Ambulance!!!

[gtoblade]

Yes, everyone always wants a deal! But, if it runs and drives you paid a significant amount i'm sure, but a 59..........will always have a good price tag and holds value! The Hoy Grail (?) of hearse's supposedly!
Maybe I will invest in another someday. Probably shouldnt have sold the one i had but it was in BAD shape. I got hooked on the bumper ends for the 58 which looks like a pair of eyes and a ghoulish mouth.

Deal?

I was supposed to get a deal?!

All I can say is that its in great shape, runs & drives!

come on! how much did you shell out for that baby? how did you find it?

[gtoblade]

No reply?? Thats not a good sign! Sort of a .......er.......maybe paid too much!? Relax, if its a 59, i have no doubt it costs some big money for it! And if its what you want and you were ok with the price then there is no problem. Doesnt matter what you pay, somebody somewhere will say thats too much, and someone else will offer you your money back cause its what they want! My 59 was beyond a basket case and i had no problem getting my money back out of it! Guy paid twice that just to ship it...................its amazing, but was what he wanted! Now i wish i had kept it! I cant buy one like that again for that price! Figures!!!

Is amazing how much of a price difference there is between a 1960 and a 1959.... they look somewhat Identical. they both look fucking gorgeous and they both have massive fins. I have always wanted a 59 but Im looking harder for a 1960 or 1961... any fins era hearse really.
but yeah. sucha difference in demand... its crazy.. people are fucked up!

[gtoblade]

know what you mean. The 60 is a great one too and the price..........makes no sense, Demand makes all the difference. I hate that the 58's i collect have gotten higher i guess due to them being a scarce year. But any finned one is great. Ironicly by the time I buy a 58 and fix it up I could have bought a pretty fair 59.........so who knows.
I dont think he is going to answer your question on where and how much though! Maybe it was bad?? I still think his 56 was a great find and a cool one to have!

come on! how much did you shell out for that baby? how did you find it?

My computer didn't want to alert me to this message,...........probably tooooo late in terms of replying..........but what the "H"...

I found my 59" while traveling to see a 68 Superior I really liked!!


Guy said he had a 59.............but it never clicked in my head what he was refering to.........none the less...........he showed it to me............and the rest is history.

I paid over 20K for her,........but I think she's worth it!!!


Runs & drives.....needs a little TLC..........but she's still damn Cool!!!!!


I apologize for seeming like a jack -a** Uncle Fester for not replying..........that's really not my style.

Oddly enough, ya just slipped by me............until now when I posted my photos of the 59'


Most Sincerely
