I am setting this auction up initially as a "fixed price" sale. If anyone wants to buy it at the listed price, go for it. Assuming I don't get that price, I will re-list the car for a 10-day auction at the conclusion of this listing. This is to allow any serious buyers the time for you to do your due diligence, get all your questions answered, investigate transportation costs, arrange financing, convince your wife you really need this car.
Some cars have been called the Holy Grail of hearses. This one actually is. If you are looking for a hearse, the 1959 Miller+Meteor Futura is at the top of your list.
1959, the year Cadillac went over-the-top with tailfins. The exact model used in both Ghostbusters movies. Make it into an Ecto replica!Same year as the car in Harold and Maude. If this car doesn't turn every head at your local vintage car cruise, you need to find a new cruise. Restore this car as a hearse, use it for funeral work or as a limo for the prom. Need room for your surfboards, or your string base? room to spare! Socially inept? You will be the most popular guy every Halloween, other than that, you're on your own. Hate your HOA? This car will REALLY piss them off! Want to cut the roof off and put a camper on? Get lost! Want to flip it for a profit? This car should be worth anywhere from $50,000 to $100,000 restored! Any other hearse from the tail-fin era will cost you just as much as this car to restore (interior, paint, bodywork, mechanical), and you will almost assuredly be underwater. With this car, you have a realistic opportunity to come out ahead. The last comparable car I have seen sold was a 1959 Eureka Combination sold at the Bullock car auction in Nebraska last November for $19,000. That car was engine-less and incomplete, and it's a less desirable model. Another 59 M+M sold here. Yeah, I'm no Spielberg. All the curved rear glass, almost impossible to source, is present, and in good condition. There is a brand-new windshield, still in it's shipping crate, that will go with the car. For a complete gallery of photos, go
