Is that an ambulance conversion? I’ve never seen a Chevy hearse.
That’s really cool. I don’t think I have ever seen a Chevy hearse conversion before, especially not a 57.
I went to high school (1960’s) with a guy that drove a hearse. Looked very much like that one, but had tricked out wheels and I suspect an altered engine. Sitting amongst the Ramblers and VW Bugs in the parking lot it made quite a statement. It didn't hurt that the guy that owned it was drop dead good looking.
He would take it to the “after hours, secret” drag races. I don't think he ever won, but the engine really roared and it was a blast to see him run.
I personally never saw the back, but heard it was pretty much a “love nest”. Needless to say, the other teenage boys hated him and his Motel 6 on wheels, lol.
Your post made me wonder what happened to him...but some memories are left best intact. He has probably aged like we all have and drives a Volt!
