'59 Cadillac Broadmoor Skyview limo

This thing is massive. I had no idea anything like this existed. As fancy as it is, it has no air conditioning, no radio and it has crank windows. With the glass roof panels and no AC, this thing must have been like a sauna in the summertime.

You should see one of them in person.

They were based on an extended commercial chassis. Hearses didn't have radios, power windows or even heat usually...

Good to see it preserved. Just think about all the hearses, ambulances and flower cars that have bit the bag over the years, save for the attentions of select hippies and other eccentrics.
