Dual-purpose Pontiac?
We’ve never seen this body style: a 1950 Pontiac which the seller lists as Ambulance/Hearse. I guess the hearse part comes in handy if it’s running late on ambulance duty. How can you put a value on this one? We can see it being cheaply fixed up and parked in front of a business. Still,…
