Things You See On Way To Work

The only times I remember seeing a hearse towed was when I was behind Danny or en route to, or at, a PCS meet. Until this morning. I saw it in the distance ahead of me. So here I go, trying to catch up. Saw the doors on the right and knew it was a side loader. Didn't think much more and then got to wondering if it was a three way. Well, I'm in 5 lanes of traffic on the Interstate and he's already a ways behind me so I go to the far left waiting for him to catch up. Needless to say I was going under the speed limit. Well I took the Memphis split, thought I'd lost him, then I noticed him again. Way back. So, here I go again, far left lane....and here he comes! I didn't know three ways were somewhat rare until my trip with Danny a couple of weeks ago. Got several pics and sent them to Jeremy, after I called and woke him up....and according to Jeremy, it IS a 73 Superior three way. What's funny I told Jeremy it looked like the same year as Dark Shadow and I thought it might be a Superior...I'm learning and I was kinda impressed with myself. HA! Not sure if it's one of the rare ones, but wanted to share. I had to miss my exit and was almost late to work. Sometimes driving to work can be an adventure.

All side loaders are 3 ways, unless they do not have a rear door.
I cant tell if its a 71, 72, or 73 without seeing the grille, but here are the Superior 3 way numbers,

1971--68
1972--88
1973--140

Very nice looking, I wonder where its headed?

Hope you didnt take offense to my post, it was not meant to be, just to help you learn and give the production numbers.
 
No, I didn't. I really don't know much, just laughing at myself....my logic was if there are 3 ways in, it's a three way, lol. Thanks for the numbers, was curious and didn't want to wait on Jeremy.
 
73 you can see the 5 mph crash proof front bumper and those are 73 caps.
but fun when you see more then just another Hearse is it not.

Good eye Ed! :thumb: :clap:

I was going to say 72 or 73 because if I recall, the taillights on the 71 were a little different. Now that you mention it, the 73 was the first year for the "big ass" front bumper. :)
