Hello everyone, I just joined this board.
The reason is that I recently purchased the above mentioned 55 Pontiac Superior hearse/ambulance combo. Mine is configured as an ambulance with the two nurses seats in the back.
Where do I start? First I need some help/direction/guidance!
I need to replace most of the glass. I know from the rear doors back is all the superior body, so nothing is the same as a standard 55 Pontiac. In looking at the only info I can find on the web, it would appear the base car/chassis is a 55 pontiac convertible chassis, that gets extended by Superior, and than has their body added.
Key questions to get the restoration started:
1. Are there any web sites with detailed information on Superior vehicles
2. Is the windshield on a 55 Pontiac Hearse/Ambulance a convertible, sedan, hardtop or wagon windshield?
3. Are the front doors standard pontiac, or are they superior.
Those questions will help quite a bit with glass and weatherstripping info, along with door hardware into.
Lastly, are there any parts sites for Superior Ambulances?
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
