Lots of work gone into that.... lots. To a very high standard.
But not my thing IMHO, must be a laugh owning \ driving it though, lots of my friends would love it.

Brillint!!! quality work. Interior reminds me of those Ozzy Osbourne slippers!! Ha ha, nice one. Dude where do I get a pair of those  It is fun to own & drive. I have a few hearses but this really gets attention. Although there is allways one tosser. On Halloween night I was very busy. After I finished the last job I parked up in a layby to clear up in the back a bit (a glass got broken)  As I was in the back I heard a noise & felt the car shake. A car sped off. I got out & checked, the tossers threw eggs down the side of the car. When I washed the car I noticed it took the paint off where an egg hit. I chased them (within speed limit honest) but they were in a golf or polo & I was in a 7.7ltr V8 blamonge so I lost em. I go back every weekend looking for them though & I have many cars so they wont see me coming. |

I notice one guy on here says my Cadillac Hearse is wibblepoo! I find that comment a bit odd & insulting. He is entitled to his opinion I just don't see how it could be called wibblepoo. Also everybody is different & into different things in life. I can appreciate lots of cars that I would'nt nesserseraly want to own, but I like to look at what other poeple are into & what they have done. I also like to see the work gone it them. I would never call someones pride & joy wibblepoo ! I'm sure his ride is far supperior to all my cars put togetther. I wonder what it is??

It was a needless comment right enough, if he didn't like it he shouldn't have bothered commenting at all, let alone in such an insulting way.

Damn right it was needless! Not like this place at all.
Perhaps I'm biased though as I love it so much I wanted to take it home with me! Hadn't spotted the Rob Zombie link - that side was parked against the wall!

thanks. It has the Rob Zombie artwork on the car because Rob Zombie comisioned the hearse to be converted to a limo to promote that album "American Music To Strip By". I am actually going to repaint that side of the car next year as I don't think it fits in with the theme. Also alot of poeple don't even know who Rob Zombie is. You can't blame them, we are not all into the same music after all. Just repainted the bonnet a few weeks ago     A Local meet in Kingston Seymore. Quite alot turned up. Me & wife took a hearse each & Garard took his Regal.  My neighbours love my driveway.  |

That is AWESOME! I've been saying i'll get a hearse for years and I still haven't got around to it, must be a right laugh! Although, it's funny how some people are really offended by hearses.... my ex was genuinely horrified and quite angry about me getting one, it's just how some people are I guess. Makes it all the more fun owning one i'm sure  Nice paintwork too, very cool all round *goes off to look for Hearses on Ebay, searchwords: 'hearse, 'hearst', 'hurst'...* |

Spectacular machine! Unbelievable. If that was mine i'd set up a fruit + veg shop in it and go round old folks homes offering my wares, obv I would never mention the hearse to them, just carry on as if it were a rascal van or something.
don't worry about the wibblepoo comment, it was probably a bit out of order like (unconstructive) but no big deal surely.

'Hirst',,,  ;D So did you do the paint work and modifications then? any more build up pics? Ignore the comment, after all Hearses are modified cars in the first place, so not everyone will appreciate the shape, TBH this is one of the few I have seen (in passing) and really liked. I think its extremeness of it and quality , along with having a functional limo interior. Love it, look forward to seeing the other beasts! Ozzy slippers, done a quick search, seems like ebays the best place, rollersnakes don't seem to seel um anymore. |

Driveway shot is great! ;D A wedge prrincess and a MK2 Granada as well, nice line up. Street, you are right about people being offended by hearses, they really seem to be a very aquired taste indeed. I have bought two hearses in the past, and both never actually managed to come home. The first episode was in about 1990, bought an Austin FX3 Hearse for £65, broke the good news to my parents........much arguing etc, eventually I gave in. Second time was in 2000, with a '59 Humber Hawk hearse, £300 and cool as feck. My wife was just as furious as my parents had been with the Austin, so sold that on before I even got it home. Sad thing is the guy chopped it up trying to make a pick up, then it got weighed in. |

Know what you mean sav - I got a lashing just for hinting that I'd like to join the Hearse Owners Club! It isn't often that I don't understand my wife but that was one of those moments.

It was comisioned by Rob Zombie in USA to be converted to a limo to promote his latest album at the time. I hired the car for my wedding in Feb 07 then biught the business in Jully 07 Check the website www.gothiclimousines.co.ukThe Wedge is an Ambasador which I picked up for a mate who runs the hearse club I'm in. I have a couple of mk2 Granada hearses. 6 Feet under? whats that? I'm not sure that is the same model. Got any info on that? Where did you get that pic from. Hey Sav those were cheap hearses you had there, shame they never went home with you. |

Thought I'd add a vid. This is a clip out of our wedding dvd that I put on youtube. As I'm sure I explained, we hired this car for our wedding in Wookey Hole Caves in Feb 07 then we bought the business in Jully 07. The guy in the vid is our now good mate bob, the previous owner.

Just read this, excellant machine, love the look of your driveway too! Hearses aren't my thing to be honest but I can really appreciate what you've got there. Ignore the Gobsh*te from earlier, he/she/it plainly has no idea about cars, manners or anything else. |
