Thread: Who wanted a hearse for their first car?

Tweet

I remember being around 8-10 one Halloween night and saw a group of teens in an old black primer hearse driving around in costumes and well being teens. It was then that I thought how cool it would be to have a hearse when I finally got to drive. I also remembered that they must have painted the car with some type of glow in the dark paint because it had an eerie green glow to it, the car was definitely black but was glowing, the friends I was with that night all thought it was cool. Im 42 now, LOVE Halloween and STILL want a hearse!

I've had a 67, 68 and 72 Cadillac hearse. Also a 36 Packard hearse and a 54 Packard rescue vehicle which is the same body style as the hearse. Great cars each and every one of them.

Did you ever watch the series Six Feet Under?

The daughter's (Clair) first car was a hearse. Of course her family worked in a funeral home.

I had a chance to buy a '66 Cadillac S&S hearse for $600 when I was 17. Dad wouldn't let me buy it. Said it was impractical. Fast forward 20 years and I still want one.

Me want....me want bad!!! I have talked about buying a hearse for years, but it seems whenever I have a touch of extra money, before I can find my dream car and buy it, some other repair or emergency comes up. I'm thinking Karma don't want me to have one.

I had fantasized about it and my parents probably wouldn't care. I had the 1,200 dollars and an active ebay account at the time, too - it could have happened. I just was really conflicted.

My first car was my mom's old jeep, which was fine, because it was free. Heh.

Saw an ad for an 87 lavender hearse on craigslist. Looked pretty rough and I thought it was priced high at $2750.

But my boys thought it was awesome!

:raises hand: I did! I had a very small trust fund with which to buy a car, and I looked everywhere. It was 1988 though, and I couldn't find any in my town, I even called funeral homes. I ended up with a Camaro. Not the same but VROOOOM and easier to park. I still want a hearse, and eventually I will get one.

this is a yes to me and still havent gotten my darn hearse

*raises a hand and jumps up and down* totally wanted one! however I got a lil saturn instead... *SHRUG* The gas milage SUCKS on them, and they weigh more than a small pickup.... urge to be good to my city's air overruled my urge to be awesome.
