1934 Other Makes

This is a very rare 1934 Sayers and Scoville handcarved Olympian Hearse I believe they made 10. This car was modified in the 40s by the Shriners. They turned it into a parade car and opened the roof in the back so they could stand in the parades. It was in storage since the early 80s. I bought it nine years ago and put over 400 hours of labor into it to make it roadworthy. I tried not to alter anything that I didn’t have to that would keep it the way it was when I found it. It now has two generators and two six volt batteries that they put on back then to run the lights,horns, and siren.The drivetrain all works as it should and I did not open the engine or the transmission. The speakers were added in the late 50s and I have no idea what the sound system was therefore there is none. The car was built by hand by S&S including the frame. The engine is the large straight eight Buick. The tires may be the original ones.One picture is of the car in a Chicago parade in 1963. I have a clear title and interesting paperwork. Call Or text with questions 216-389-6184, I’m pretty sure there might be a couple.
