Wanna be different? Check this out! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2400677580&category=6144 I have spoken to some folks who say it is one of 48 or so made and the only long wheel base version known to exist today, probably one of 5 or less 59 Buicks left. Imagine a big bad 468 under the hood.............. Evil in so many ways!
Hearse Well, I guess Death by Buick would have a whole new meaning for sure. A wheel stand by that hearse might be the only thing that would rival the wheel stand by Mike at TA Performance's wagon. Alan
I have a slight fetish for hearses anyway. This one looks quite restorable. I wonder if it runs? That would look AWESOME in black paint with dark red ghost flames all along the sides. You could even get the interior in black and red leather and have one of those Bob Falfa skulls hanging off the rearview mirror! If you were going to take it on road trips, get a black casket with red trimmings and red velvet inside and use it for a bed! now THAT would be a hit at norwalk...
I've had 3 hearses myself, all Cadillac. A 78, 83 and a 69 with the torque monster 472, fun cars, that 69 would get out of its own way! I even knew a guy who two who dragged them, would turn 14-15s thats for a 6500 pound car!
Even though I hate commercials, I love that commercial. I guess because I could imagine myself doing that.:laugh: ....Another one bites the dust!.:laugh: ........ ________ How to roll a joint
one word SWEET!!! I want two of them!!! i'm likin the red and black idea.. how pimp would that be to cruze with that.. kinda reminds me of the marilyn manson video. but with soo much more class. thinkin air ride and lots of leather. I still want a car with fins.. woah another buick hearse another buick hearse
Lets all Chip in $5 and Buy it as the Transportation Device for the Stage III Four-bolt Main Block !!! I could just picture J.W. Driving Cross Country Haulin' the block around to different events in that !!! ....Course it would have to have a MONSTER motor and Titanium scrapers on the underside of the bumper for those SPARKIN Wheelstands :TU:
i like it I like it. out standing idea... put the retractable cart in the back there.. so you can pull it out and see it from all angles.. Nate
If you were gonna build it up for sound, you could take those shelves on both sides and rout 4-5 subs back there and line the top with amps. meh. They'd have to be either red or black. Maybe like the X-Plod lineup.
The sound Idea has been done, The termanator was built by Wayne Harris of DB drag Assoc. HE has it in retirement right now. But I wouldn't use the crappy sony line, for red amps, the Orion HCCA line would smoke the sony stuff. Tim 02 USACi world champion basic pro 0-300
my idea air ride independent suspension keep the nail head in it but with injected twin turbo. computer controled trans. real time adjustable computer controled real time adjustable power curve custom digital gauge cluster (color active matrix display infinately adjustable look to the display.) kinda like winamp plugins only a gauge display that can be anything you want. normal classic wide speedo unless there is a problem then heat, oil, and the specific gauge will pop up again can have all the specs you want. the neat thing.. this is do able now though do you have the $ to do it. would most likely run on a linux box. output to screen could pretty easly be written java. mp3 sound system with large supply of music maybe XM. good sounding not just rattle the windows. screw the indash DVD (she'd be made to be driven not for watching TV) touch screen controls (intregrated with engine/trans computer stereo, air ride, heating and ac) sorta like the old reatta only full color and controls everything. large low profile tires (17's?) simple but classic paint scheme basic black on chrome? custom leather interior not sure what to do in the back though... Nate
:af: :af: :af: EVIL:af: :af: :af: Oh man, that would be too much Air ride on 20in chrome rims (BLING BLING :Brow: ) Built 455. OD trans for the long haul Full A/V system. Build a coffin into a subwoofer enclosure Jet black with silver ghost flames and full rechrome of all the bumpers and trim. Would make one hell of a bad cruiser..... The cool ones always show up when I have no $$$. I would love a project like that. Personalized plate (REAPER) Someone please buy this thing and go nuts on it....
My Idea + Yours...... OK...OK..... Fully Interactive DVD Touch screen Multi-Media System .......monster Sound etc....WITH ......The 455 4-bolt Stage-III Block System INSIDE the Slide-Out Coffin......50" Plasma Screen Built INTO the inside of the Coffin Lid !!!!!......Visible when it Hydrolically opens .....showing both the screen and the 455" on its Pop-up Stand For the Display of Buick History....Stage III Block Origins.....Dennis Manner Interviews......Buick Drag racing Movies....Brad Conolly's ProtoTypes..... :TU: :TU: :TU:
I Kinda liked this idea... Keep it "on ice" This, however, would be the show to drive it to: http://www.gravesights.org/meat2.htm - Freed
