On May 5, 2001 the PCHC
met at the Sunnyside Cemetery in Long Beach, CA. There was a large turn-out for
this meeting with around 25 coaches present, including 4 flower cars an' a
bitchin' Chrysler Imperial. As usual, I hadda leave early for my 100+ mile
drive home. However, this time I had a bolt of purple velvet to accompany me
(Can you say "Curtains an' seat covers"? Sure, I knew ya could).
Note to the owners of
these rad rides: Please, PLEASE, email me info on your coach or car.
Stuff like year, coachmaker, an' model, so I can ID your ride correctly. An' if
I've made any errors ("If", he says. Of course there's friggin'
errors!) please email me the corrections. Thanx, y'all! hearsedriver@hearsedriver.com
Enjoy.

These pics don't do justice to the
bitchin'
flame job on this hearse! Color shiftin' flames with pictures of skulls
an' spiders woven into the flames. Totally unique an' beautiful. My
personal fave of the day! An' don't
miss that cool skull hood ornament!
"It was grey and in rather poor
physical condition; I had removed the floor in the attempt to make a
limo out of her; arranged seats; installed a smoke machine; big stereo,
oh god what was I thinking (sniffle sniffle). I have since removed said
items...
I'm trying to remain as stock as possible while still getting as wild as
my budget will allow. Anyway the paint took 6 long months, originally we
were going to do the flames in stone (hence the stone effect on the
sides) it didn't look...well...me,... Presently we use it for our
radio show here in the I.E. (jaceweb.com)
it is in fact my daily driver. Next on the agenda is the floor
installation, new engine (with a big cam), already got my rims, 17's,
and to have gratuitous amounts of sex in the back (ah to dream).
-Gote
P.S. The car's name is "ScapeGote", it's my excuse for everything I can't
afford such as rent, and her license plate now reads 4MLDHID you figure
it out."

| Brian's HAUNTED '72? |
 |
 |
|
 |
 |
| This is Brian's
new '72. He recently purchased it from Doug
Scott, an believe me IT'S
GORGEOUS! These pictures don't do it justice. An' ya wanna know why?
'CAUSE IT'S HAUNTED!!! The coach is a beautiful cream over burnt orange,
but in my pictures it comes out BLOOD RED! The interior is an immaculate
copper brocade pattern, but ya wouldn't know that 'cause the pic I took
looks like I took a shot of the sky! Yeah, it's that weird blue pic on the bottom there.
I took the shot through the back door an' I checked it on the camera's
display, but the blue pic was all that transferred to my computer. I'm not
sayin' for sure that it's haunted, but ya might jus' have a
passenger there Brian. At any rate, a permanent rider is a small price
to pay for a hearse as beautiful as this one! Nice goin' Brian. |
