I don't even have to say it, and Steam, I'm shocked that you didn't beat me to it.... Attachments:

If we go by the grille, I feel confident to say that Curtis drives a 1967 Cadillac Flower Car. That's really cool, LV. Thanks for the great info and pics. I don't have any plans to recreate Curtis' car, but it's cool to know more about it.

I'm glad it's appreciated. I've been a Cadillac guy for years and I've wanted a flower car for a number of them, but they're very hard to find in good condition or at a reasonable price. I am looking into getting a hearse next summer as a work vehicle.

I am looking into getting a hearse next summer as a work vehicle. What a wild work vehicle. I was thinking about the hearses in the Phantasm movies. I read that: > the 1968 Cadillac used in P3 as the pink hearse, then we painted it black for P4 ... > [that] 68 cad was used in all those [Phantasm 3 , Phantasm Oblivion and Bubba Ho-tep] films phantasmcommunity.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=general&thread=806&page=1> [Guy Thorpe] owned the 1969 Cadillac P2 hearse for about 8 yrs after the film came out ... > Guy had this beauty for years, but finally sold it to a friend in a hearse club. > The fellow had it for only a few weeks, then got into an accident on an LA Freeway (the 101 I think). > The hearse was totalled. from same thread.

The best give away that Curtis has a '67 Caddy is that '67s had the wipers mounted on the cowl, the '68 has them under the rear edge of the hood (like a Monaco).
