Remember when ‘Lil Kim Jong-il was strapped to the roof of a 1976 Lincoln in his coffin like the grandmother in National Lampoon’s Vacation? That got us to thinking which old hunk of American steel we’d like to roof surf to our dirt nap. The human roof rack idea is far cooler than the old school hearse. Just the ventilation alone is worth the price of admission.
A 1976 Lincoln would not be tops on our list, but that doesn’t mean it cannot be your top choice, although we think that their cool factor took a hit with that lunatic jackass exposing himself as a fan of the yacht like mid 1970s Lincolns. Would you want to perform some sort of dead guy planking act and balance on the small area of a hard top ‘Vette? Perhaps you’d prefer the aircraft deck-like stability of a Caprice station wagon or the cross trunk lid largess of a Buick Electra 225? A totally class move may be riding length-wise on the hood of an old Pierce Arrow or Essex or something. The possibilities are endless!
Here’s the question of the day….answer it!
What Car Would You Want to be Strapped to For Your Funeral Parade?Β

I heard once about a guy that was cremated and packed in a chute pack. Last pass style! I guess he wound up in the track sweeper!
Rumor has it “The Nitro Man”, a.k.a. “Reverend Cack”; Steve Wallace will have his ashes distributed from a dragster’s chute as part of a memorial at the California Hot Rod Reunion in a coupla weeks.
Steve was a freelance photographer and trackside personality at west coast events.
R.I.P., my friend!
70’s Aston Martin ‘ Shooting Brake ‘ conversion . If you’re gonna go … you might as well go with ‘ class ‘ π
For some reason, I have the urge to make one last bad joke. I’d want to use a box truck, painted orange and white, but with a parody of the U-Haul logo reading “U Can’t take it with u.”
I’d probably want them to just toss me in the back of my beloved 71 pickup!
squeeze the box between the rear bars of my 85 camaro, hangin out the hatch. maybe strap the box to the bars and have whoever is driving hit the spray a couple of times on the way… π

Before I go in the oven,one of those Peroxcide rockets that ran at the drags in the ’80s,then let out in the laudry at Boneville on a 200+MPH pass….
You mean I have to go–Oh Well
Put me in the back of my 1974 Dodge D100 R/T Club Cab, before I get cremated, and have a Mopar party in my memory.
That’s an easy one. Dump me in (or on) my 1966 Checker station wagon. It’s big, gloss black, slammed, hot rodded, and sinister looking. As it is, those to young to know what the make is, always ask me if it’s a hearse. So why not use it as one. It would be perfect! I guess that means I better get it finished before I die.
There was a guy around here who was buried in his Vette. They made the family buy two plots and drain all fluids out of car. It even made the local paper around here.
