Vehicle Detail
1968 Cadillac Superior Hearse. I purchased this hearse a few years ago with the intention of finishing the back with limo seating, since it had already been gutted by previous owner.. I have since put on all new tires, a starter and replaced all the brakes, including new brake lines. The previous owner did a lot of work on it , I was going to finish it but have other more pressing projects to deal with.. I do not know the mileage, the previous owner said he put in a newer rebuilt 500 motor..You can tell by the photos that the motor has upgrades and is not stock. I did not build it so I do not know any details regarding the drivetrain.. All the body work has been done with new paint and a new vinyl top put on it. Some of the trim still needs to be put back on but is in the car and goes with it, ( I also still have the original grill with the other trim).. The car has been sitting in the garage for the last couple years, but it ran and drove ok before I put it away.. I threw a new battery and some gas in it last weekend and it fired up and ran.. It did make some clanking,knocking noise that may need to be addressed, but I am not sure what the problem is.. Added bonus not found on newer models, both rear side doors have windows that open.. This is a good project for someone to finish, most of the expensive areas have already been finished.. I have all the receipts for the work I had done to the car..and parts I replaced.. Car has:: Recent body work. Newer custom paint job with ghost flames. New white wall tires. Newer rebuilt 500 motor (according to previous owner) New vinyl top. New starter. All new Brakes. Stereo system. What it will need:: Finish the interior.(including brand new leather seat) Finish installing trim.(comes with the car) Look into clanking,knocking noise. old owner used a hose to connect the new gas tank. Wipers do not work. If you win $500.00 non refundable deposit is required, It needs to be paid in full within 7 days.. I can store it for a while if needed, and can help you arrange shipping if needed.. Happy to answer any questions, I have driven it less than 50 miles since I have owned it, back and forth from the shop to have the brakes done and one car show. but will answer as much as I know.On Jun-27-14 at 15:41:25 PDT, seller added the following information: Going to have car looked at this weekend to try and resolve the knocking issue, or at least eliminate some possibilities. Mileage on car is 75,000 miles.. On Jun-27-14 at 15:56:47 PDT, seller added the following information: It is looking like the problem is a bad flywheel, But will be checking everything else closer this weekend.. On Jun-28-14 at 08:31:27 PDT, seller added the following information: Please do not ask for the reserve, To be fair to everyone interested it is going to the end of auction, if you are interested bid on it.. I have some of the interior parts and trim that were removed, I do not have the table or rollers,, I do have the side walls and interior side wall lights. You can still finish it like a lime or leave it as a Ratrod.. On Jun-29-14 at 18:09:49 PDT, seller added the following information: Flywheel is loose or cracked,, everything else seems ok..
