Hi all. Well I have been looking at building a Hearse for a few years now. But having the space to build it in was always a problem. But now with the new house I have the room for my Halloween to do projects. It took a couple months of researching local hardware stores to come up with the design based off of available parts. The Hearse is built in such a manner that it all comes apart into panels. Bottom, Top, Sides, Ends and the drivers seat.

Its about 80% done. Still have to wood fill the counter sunk screws, mount the axles and wheels. Then construct a roof, attach trim molding, maybe some lanterns and of course paint.

Maybe next year I'll try and build a fullsize horse skeleton.

Here are the pics:

I finished my hearse a few month ago. The plexiglass ran me about $60 I think..its been to long ago now to remember. I know I used the thinnest stuff Lowes carried and got a deal on a cracked piece. The curtains for mine was more than the plexiglass. The painting, molding, curtains, windows, etc took as long if not longer then building the coach itself. I build a horse as well....that thread is around here someplce.
