It's been really gratifying to have someone occasionally note what beautifully styled vehicles our cars are. I bet many of us have experienced this. Not long after I got my '65 Sovereign in 1990 a guy about my age came up as I was filling up one day and said "thank you for preserving that, that's a beautiful vehicle!" Comments like that really make you purr, huh?
just about every time I take the Coach to a show at least 2-3 people will comment on the coach and thank me for preserving the car....it does make you good !
except for the hatchback I kinda like the looks of the RWD Chrysler 300 hearse who made it ? Federal ??
Ok Thanks Ken ....... so besides being a Krystal Coach, I still like the looks of the Chrysler 300 as being the base of a hearse it just seems to be a bit more classy looking then a 2012-2013 Cadillac
300

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate older hearses (That is why I collect them), however, not everyone feels that way. Because of that, there will always be a demand for brand new hearses and there are funeral homes who will buy them no matter what they look like. We use our hearse for most removals and most services, even with an urn. Some people why we use a hearse for an urn and we say, "because we are still carrying a body with dignity" Truth is, a hearse makes funeral processions easier and the public still sees the hearse on the road. It is all about image, new hearse, old hearse, no hearse....
