 Old ambulances and hearses seem to rank right up there with panel
vans and air-cooled Volkswagens in the category "Vehicles most likely to
be used as a canvas for overactive imaginations." That's okay, but
we're glad to see some restored to their original configuration, such as
this 1951 Ford ambulance, bodied by Siebert, for sale on Hemmings.com. From the seller's description:
"SIEBERT ambulance, an ex-U.S. Navy vehicle, supposed to be
one of only ten ever built. This unusual Ford's odometer only shows 14,687
miles, which is represented as actual miles from new, by the previous owner of
21 years. During his ownership, the car received new paint, chrome, upholstery,
and a rebuilt flathead V8, mated to the three-speed, column-mounted, standard
transmission. The car enjoys an excellent appearance, all the emergency
lighting and siren work, and it drives remarkably well, at moderate highway
speeds."
