The worst last ride anybody could take...

Wow. I am on a Station wagon forum and someone posted pics of this abomination. It is a 1983 Baycliff Packard Hearse. If I was to take my last ride in that, I would haunt whomever put me in this.

There's only so much you can do when it's only a Cadillac to start with.

I don't think it's a Cadillac underneath all that cheese and dreck - I think it's a Buick Riviera.

It must be some funeral director's scheme to drum up some business - it has the type of styling that will frighten you to death!

baycliff was a butcher. thats it. no other way to put it. all of his "packards" should be cut up for parts.

You may be right. I was thinking the tail lights were Cad, but either way, there wasn't much there in 80's GM to start with--and what was available came off far worse (if possible) in this creation than the "Packard" sedan did.

It looks like something Liberace would love to have been delivered to his final resting place in. It is just way to over the top. It does look like a Riviera under all the garbage. Poor Riviera I would offer it a blind-fold, a cigarette and maybe a nice stiff drink before putting it out of its misery.
