I recently acquired a '65 Cadillac Flower Car that was stored in a barn full of Cadillacs in Northern Michigan. It was quite an ordeal getting it out in daylight along with the 2 sedans it came with for parts. The car is from the now defunct Norton Funeral Home that had locations both in Detroit and Cheboygan, MI.
A friend of mine who is a cadillac expert is helping with the restoration. It was in far rougher shape than we had hoped, but where are you going to find another one I suppose. So far most of the car has been stripped down to begin the body and frame work.
My first question: Are the windshield and back window custom, or were they commercially available for another type of vehicle. He is concerned about removing the windows in case something should happen and they are irreplaceable.
