On Sunday afternoon, after the Hudson show, we toured the museum at Canton where they have a 37 Packard craved side hearse and flower car. These cars were both at the Opus '37 at Warren a couple of summers ago. Some nice cars and a lot of other stuff to see at this museum.

Dave: You are correct. I failed to look it up.
The 22nd Series Super Eight, next to the 47 Limo was send to H & E (not Henney, according to the owner )) to have that padded top added so the sedan would match the Hearse. The owner calls it a "Clergy Car" but it may have been used a "Lead Car" that would go before the hearse to lead the procession to church/cemetery.

All of the other conversion companies had "three way tables" (S&S, Hess and Eirhart, Eureka) Here is another picture of the open top hearse with the top down, and a Studerbaker "Ambulet"

First two pictures are a Cadillac with wood-carved side panels. After the conclusion of their banquet on Sat. night, at about 10:30 pm, all of the drivers of the antique ambulances came outside and "fired -up" all of the sirens and emergency lights, about 50 cars. It was pretty impressive, probably a couple hundred people showed up to see it. They called it their "Light and Sound Show"

The Motor Muster was last weekend and the weather was tremendous. the '56 Clipper Sedan is Amber's and the 56 Clipper Hardtop is Frederickr, both member's of this site. The 49 is mine. Joel Ray (packards1) and Susan were also there on Sunday. The 110 was a little rough, especially the interior and the owner invited visitors to touch this car.
