Wehave here a very special car. Originally came from Missouri, (probably why there is a lot of rust in the car.) Then in its later years it came to the sandhills of Nebraska where it is a dry climate. You never see any rusty vehicles here to speak of.. It was used on a huge ranch for the local funerals, they would put flowers in it for all the funerals. It was a beautiful car.
So the car sat for years until I worked on it, repaired the engine to original, complete fuel system, tune up and service, new starter, whatever it took to drive. All new brakes shoes and brake cylinders and hoses. trans seal, service and so on..
The big deal here is that the car is rare, very rare. Built by Cadillac Commercial Chassis for funerals. The box is built from stainless steel. They used a 2-door Calais for the job and looks cool. This car needs restored by a professional shop to really bring out the originality.
The car is complete with fender skirts, all original prts. As the description says it has a lot of rust . This a great project for someone that is good with body work, I did the mechanic, its turn key. But it needs to be appreciated and really a guy could make a lot of money, these cars are very desirable, 1967 Flower Car come on.
The glass is all good, even has some of the original bias ply tires and original and hub caps.
Again this car needs total restoration, new quarters, fenders under the box needs fabricated, the seat is in very good shape, needs floor, so here you go a complete car 1967 Calais 2-door built as a Flower car. You probably will never see another one again. I believe mileage is original.
