The 63 I had I didn't even bother figuring the mpg...... it was a half a tank to town, a half a tank back!!!!

I think, on a good day, he got around 9 miles to the gal mileage, but gas was 35 cents a gal so it wasn't a issue. His folks were well off anyway. He also drove a '65/'66 XKE Jaguar. This was around 1968/1971. -------------- Original message -------------- From: Michael Pell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Speaking of old hearses.... When I was in Little League (some 30 years ago), my Dad had acquired a early 60s or so Caddy Hearse. As I recall, he traded a stack of Playboys about 4' tall. This became his "beer run" machine, as they (the Jaycees) could put a lot of cases in there. For an away Little Leage game, he cleaned out the old hearse, and we used it to drive the entire team to the away game. And he let us take shoe polish over the entire car! it was a hoot! And if memory serves, he traded it off for a shotgun..... -- I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, Than live my life as if there isn't, And die to find out there is. -Blaise Pascal WHOSE CRUEL IDEA WAS IT FOR THE WORD "LISP" TO HAVE "S" IN IT? - unknown Check out my webpage at http://www.ProStreetCar.com TREMEC Distributor at http://www.5speedTransmissions.com Team Chevelle member #1778 (Gold), ACES member #1377 Hoosier State Chevelle Assoc (http://www.IndianaChevelles.com) #6 Josh Campbell wrote: Awsome!!! I've been Jonesing for another Caddy hearse, had a 63 ambulance, awsome car it was kind of freaky though to drive sometimes.... think about it dead people ride in a hearse...... people have DIED in an ambulance!!! Otherwise I would love to get another one, or just a regular Fleetwood, or something like that, they make awsome cruisers.
