PS As a passionate car aficionado, I am very jealous you are so close to Mulhouse!

Just a note. Matt is currently on his way to the PCS International meet, so he may be delayed in getting back to you.

John Rabold

With your help, I have found the John Rabold photo album on Facebook.
It contains some pictures that I've never seen !
I will share this stuff soon.
Thank you again.

Not a professional car but pretty cool, even if I don't know what year it was : the Munster Koach at Indianapolis in the 60's (maybe 1966)

Need some help for 1959, so there is the 1960 Indy ambulances :


- the dark one (probably red) is a Buick made by Cotner-Bevington



- could you identify the white one ?

 

[Kerry Lange]

1959 Comet Oldsmobile.

 

[Keith Snyder]

The dark colored one is a 1960 Cotner/Bevington Buick Seville - an original wheelbase combination car.

Buick Seville or Invicta

 

[Keith Snyder]

The coach was based on a standard wheelbase 1960 Buick LeSabre chassis and Cotner/Bevington's model name for its short wheelbase offerings was Seville. The name was also used for the original wheelbase C/B models on the Oldsmobile chassis. In 1960, This C/B offering competed directly with the Flxible Flxette.

Those images above from 1961 and 1962 show a 1960 Eureka-Cadillac ambulance. The white vehicle behind the ambulance in that one image is a 1960 Ford Ranch Wagon. Thanks for posting these.
