I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

No Lee, the VW transporter factory in Hanover did not 'make' hearses, but they did have the capacity to custom-make vehicles for special applications. However according to a thread on The Samba, these Kombi hearses were made by coach builder Fritz Frickenger in Augsburg.

This is a shot of VW boss Heinz Nordhoff's funeral procession in Wolfsburg in April 1968. His hearse was modified VW Pickup.
