Could have been a hearse but I thought a hearse would have modified C pillars. I wonder if an AU hearse will ever come up for sale somewhere. I don't think I could ever have one, maybe more suited to rock bands and supernatural pest controllers.

Hmmmmmmmm that doesn't look that bad at all.

I thought it would be all mis-matched and stuff, but it looks good.

Certainly not a everyday sight.

DRHEMI, you are not the only one that lives next door to a cemetary. I do too. The people next door are dying to get into the dead centre of town because of its quietness.

Hearse's are typically LWB or 2 door conversions. There's some real nice Dodge and Ford ones from the 70s. Would make for a great themed street machine.

I hear there's quite a waiting list for that cemetery. People are just dying to get in there.
