The Appeal
Coachbuilt by Superior, and using the DeVille as a base, the Cadillac Superior Hearse is bound to resonate with the gothic enthusiast. Sure, you could argue it's a little macabre, but then, if you need to move house, you're not likely to complain about all of that space in the back...
This unique looker was first registered on this side of the Atlantic in 2014 for TV and production work, and soon joined the Russell Schacter collection, where it continued its career on the silver screen. When it was imported, it was lowered and fitted with a crude but oh-so-gothic-chic cross ornament - not to mention provided a rather unique, careworn matte black livery.
It's not often a niche classic like this one comes to market. Loaded with characterful patina, and packed with character, this is isn't a car for the faint of heart - but it's in fine mechanical order, and has quite the storied history. We're sure that for anybody seeking a real conversation starter, that'll be more than enough to get your attention. image.png4.75 MB
