1947 Buick Hearse would you restore it or just drive it?
Car pics too cool not to share

That's awesome, American entrepreneurship right there.
I'm sure the government will find a way to fuck it up in time.
OP
That thing is an interesting ride. The side trim that's on the rear quarters is from a '57 Pontiac...
The taillights are '56 Chevy, as is the rear bumper...
I'm trying like hell to remember where that side trim on the doors and front fenders is from, but it escapes me at the moment. Also, gotta love those tacked-on tail fins!

I really enjoy you guys and how you all dissect a rig.

Not a full on restore, but definitely clean it up and drive it. That thing is super cool.

I've never seen a '68 Polara done to this extent. Definitely not the first thing that comes to mind when you think of customizing a car. But wow!...he did such a nice job with it!
C body MoPars really don't get much love. It's always cool to me seeing one done-up nicely, original or custom. There's a guy local to me who has a '67 or '68 Chrysler 2-door painted a deep purple with a lace top on bags. It's just such a rare car to see, and that makes it cool.
I would love driving it because the person in the back seat won't be telling you how to drive or where to go.
Certainly improved the vehicle's CoG, but I'm guessing the feeling of having your brains sucked out your right ear might get old after a while...
