Yeah do it!

Cool!...you have to love satin black paint jobs

Thanks for the interest guys...I shall have to get waffling so I can post you some pictures. The club think there are 5 or 6 of these left in the country, so not that rare by old hearse standards....sort the rust then hot rod the hell out of it!

Good point!! I think it needs a V8 with a dirty great blower out the bonnet

I love MK3s...i'm jealous

Cheers I may hot rod it...though it is rare so i'm not sure. I'm going to sort the rust out first and then decide. Can anybody on here decode the chassis number because i'm told it was a 1600 from the factory but i just want to confirm it. I know the Germans had 1600 MK2s but it just seems wierd for a hearse but then its also manual which is also wierd! I think for now i'll just lower the front and paint the steels black and rat around in it

Heres my hearse, MK2 Granada SWB coachbuilt by Pollman in Germany. I've replaced the slipping clutch and thanks to my mate Chris replaced the bodged propshaft and transmission crossmember. Just need to unsieze the front brakes and replace a brake pipe for the MOT and then battle the rust!! I would post a picture but it appears i'm not allowed!! I've posted it in my garage section.
