You all probably remember my recent post about a parts inquiry for a 66 Newport wagon. I just got pics from the owner and it turns out to have been a 4dr sedan when it was sold in Holland in on September 13, 1966, but somewhere along the way it was converted into a hearse, hence the missing back seat. It used to be a grey car, but now it's flat black. According to the registration papers it was grey when it was converted to a hearse, too. Car is now missing drivetrain and some other things. Anyway, here's some pics. It looks a bit like a Jensen, but I think it is a neat custom job. Check out the custom-made backglass. Something tells me that a window from a 'regular' 66 wagon ain't gonna fit... :

Cool find
Well, most of the American classics over here primarily run on LNG or Propane, which is about 3 times cheaper than the lowest octane gasoline we have here, which is a 95.
