What type is it?
Is that really a hearse 1/2 buried?

I see one straight ahead nose first and one on the right tail first. Maybe I could get a bumper off that one straight ahead. 
There has to be, look at the one straight ahead... Is that an ambulance then?
The car "nosed in" is a station wagon; the one on the right, "nose up," is a 1968 Superior/Cadillac.

Or maybe a limousine.
I agree with you Richard. Sure does look like a pro car of some sorts right in the front of the picture. Even without looking at the roof line, the back door is squared off at the bottom. Some sort of stretched vehicle.
Try this with the picture turned sideways. Does the roofline not indicate a hearse section? The roofline continues to go up as it goes to the rear looking like a hearse. Perhaps it is just me.
Look at this hearse and compare the rooflines.

to my eye
To my eye that is a station wagon. Doesn't look big enough to be a procar. Can we say road trip? Spend the weekend and see carhenge and have a great time with people and procars.

what can I say. the roof is vary much like a superior I'm working on so I would say they did stick one in the mix. with the openings covered the way they are and everything painted gray it makes them all look the same. there is a 67 olds 88 right next to this one. standing on it's tail to. but I can't say I ever paid that much attention to each car. most are recognisable as what make and modal they are and at a glance this one is a mid 60s caddy. as is the one buried in front of it. Alliance is right at 90 miles south of me. but as in all things they have changed the main Hy so that now you don't drive past it. her are a few more cropped up. the drivers door is way to big for the standard caddy. it has to be a pro car.

In johns pics the second pic showing the underside that vehicle has a two drive shafts .
it has to be a superior notice in all the cars this is the only one that the paint is peeling and the roof is rusty. "says the man with the rusty roof on a S&S". all though Paul may disagree with me on the manufacturer of this one.
Cadillac never made a hearse either.
There were Cadillac station wagon built, but not by Cadillac. They didn't have the same lines as a hearse.

Good eyes on that one Andrew. I totally misses the split in the drive shaft the first time that I looked. I can clearly make it out now. It splits at the cross member on the frame.

another thing to notice is the floor pan, stock for the front compartment and flat for the rear compartment.
I was wondering if anyone noticed...!
