Happy Belated Dan!
I hope it was filled with wonders beyond imagination (and if it was, please post pics!).

And Howdy Xavier!

Thanks guys, it was a fabulous 60th. We took a trip to one of our favorite places. Long Beach, WA. Queenie rented a Charger to drive out in after the Mercedes threw an engine code right before we were going to hit the road. Stayed at a very hip new hotel condo, had a dinner at a great restaurant, and I did find a dream car I'd love to buy - pic taken with the new Samsung Galaxy 6 phone Eileen gave me. Really diggin' the phone. They've come a long way in the past couple of years.

Happy belated birthday Dan!  You could do some ghost-busting with a vehicle like that!  ;)

There is something a little disturbing about a hearse-ambulance.

If you lived in a small town most ambulances looked like a hearse when we were kids.

I would have to include in the resto budget a couple of proton packs and some coveralls...

I think it's a 1962 Pontiac ambulance. 

It's a bit more modern than the more famous...

The lights on that Caddy don't come close to those Flash Gordon mammary missiles on the Pontiac.

Happy birthday Doc.

What that ambulance needs is a big V8 motor and a pair of drag radials under its rear end :)
