Default Christmas gifts

What was the most unusual Christmas gift you received? Mine was a 1959 Cadilac hearse.

Precision Miniatures.


Besides just being neat becasue we are in the funeral business, a couple of other things make it really special. It was a gift from my mother, and my dad onced owned a hearse much like this one.

The hard part was keeping the young ones from playing with it.

It is a Superior conversion. They may have done more hearse conversions then any other coach company.

Last summer I sold a 1949 Chevy Barnett (out of Memphis I believe) converted hearse that also was owned by my dad. It was in very rough shape, becoming a fixture behind our house. My wife was glad to see it go.
