Hi there,
Way back in 1995 I was looking around Joes Golden Gasoline's in Adelaide dreaming of one day buying an American car and just happened to ask him if he had ever seen a 1959 Cadillac hearse for sale, his eyes lit up, I've got one arriving next week!. I have always dreamed of one ever since seeing the movie Harold and Maude as a kid. I said Sold! it was fate.
I purchased the 1959 Cadillac Superior Hearse and soon after begun tearing it apart for restoration,(time lapse) just this year I have seriously begun and are progressing well.
All I know of its past is that it came from Perth and has Washington state plates I believe it was imported before this time and it was not imported by Joe. I would be interested if anyone knows anything about it.
Thanks Bryce
