I know someone in Oakland who has two of them and might sell you one. Both are late 1960s Cadillacs and get terrible fuel economy but have lots of room both in terms of interior load floor length and headroom. I'd consider one for my bicycle hauling application if the fuel economy weren't so poor. Also the wheelbase and overall length are very long, similar to a stretched limousine and probably longer than an extended length US full size van so it might be awkward to park. The width is at least as wide as a full size van too. Any VW van will turn circles in the space it takes to turn a hearse around in. Zach Kaplan |
