Representing all the elegance of the
1930's, our superb 1937 Cadillac La Salle Hearse
is the finest way to say goodbye in style. Providing a
service to New South Wales and the ACT, this fully
restored hearse is the pride and joy of Mr Stuart Rowe.
Originally exported from the United
States as a commercial chassis, this La Salle hearse was fitted
out in Australia with an engine (a side valve V8 engine which
originally saw service powering a Cadillac tank), panels
manufactured by Holden, whilst the coachwork was completed by
Oldings Coachcraft, in Glebe. It has a floor mounted, three
speed transmission.
Restoration has taken approximately 3years to
complete with virtually all systems, be they electrical or
mechanical, being completely rebuilt or replaced.
