Restored ambulance? I assume it's got a 500....or maybe a 472? Sorry, don't know my Caddies very well.

But I do want that trailer!

Nice, that looks like a Superior I had a '71 Cad-Superior hearse in the 90's. Very solid construction, and basically a half-ton GMC underneath. '74 should have the 472 and a Turbo 400.

i cant remember.
yeah the trailer is pretty cool. its one of those where you lock the axles and the top deck slides off, you load, then drive the deck and car back on top of the axles. pretty slick, id never seen that before.

Had a chance to purchase a limo in similar shape when I was 17. Thankfully, I passed on that one.

At my Grandfather's funeral, I found out he had a Caddy with a rod knock (not horrible, but present). The family said we could have it, but my old man didn't want me takin' it and not making it back home.

Can't say I'm heartbroken about either missed opportunity, though.
