There will be people dying to have a ride in that.
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

That black one is a very cool VW.
There's a mob in the UK that do Kombi funerals currently (all theirs are white). I'm sure I've posted them before.
Here is their site again: http://www.volkswagenfunerals.co.uk/

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.

It must be true if you read it on samba.
I read it on samba, so it must be correct.
Sometimes Volkswagen dealers sell spare parts. Amazing isn't it!
