Wild that you used to need a CDL to drive these. Maybe it's just because it was being used as an ambulance?

Recently watched on YouTube: "What kind of girl daily drives a hearse?"

I've also been following a YouTube channel that has been rebuilding a 1950 Cadillac hearse for a couple of months now. It's been completely gutted because the floorboards were rotted out and the engine destroyed by rust and water damage, but he's doing a fabulous job rebuilding the internal framework, putting in a new suspension and now currently working on the motor housing.
