Ok guy's as you all know I am a sucker for a Spanish hearse and decided that I just had to get another. Well here it is ! 1971 Dodge 3700GT first used in Ourense north western Spain and spent it's entire life there with the same family. It had over 5000 happy customers so the seller told my driver.

I have got it running off a gravity fuel supply as it has half a tank of stale fuel. The water pump and hoses all leak and it has no brakes. Overall not too bad really.
Video will be added later.

That'd make a great pickup if you took the greenhouse off

Is that a Barreiros factory body or a coachbuilder conversion? Either way, it’s a pretty thing.

It is a coachbuilder call Coper from Jativa. I can't find much reference on them as enen the town has changed it's name since this was built in 1971

I think you'll need a bigger fuel tank...

Ah the 225ci slant six aka the leaning tower of power. Great engines renowned for being reliable and very robust. Lovely hearse, wish modern ones looked as cool.

Someone thought they could dodge death, and this is the result.

If Dario Argento was a shitter, that would be his choice. Very impudent of me but if you get bored of it....

Those seats look very...upright, last time I saw any at that angle they were in a '55 Cadilac limo.
