1970 Superior 54 Cadillac Ambulance, Emergency, Hearse, Commercial Chassis
Description
Up for bid is a 1970 Superior 54 CadillacAmbulance. This unit was purchased for restoration approximately a year and a half ago. Shortly after purchase a oncein a lifetime project came my way and has consistently consumed a significant amount of my time and resources. Hence, the chance to purchasethispiece of history has come about.
Thiswas purchased in Ohio andtransported by trailer to New Jersey. My understanding is that it sat not running for many years, thus requiringmany updates to make it run and somewhat road worthy.
Updates within the past year are as follows;
Brakes; Front Rotors, pads, Caliper, seals, bearings, hoses, Rear Drums, brakes and hardware, wheel cylinders, hoses, master cylinder and a good amount of the lines.(4) Four Hankook Optimo P235/75/R15Rear adjustableair shock absorbersTwo BatteriesBasic RadiatorAftermarket fuel tankPlugs and wiresElectric Choke(I'msure I'veleft somethings out)
Drivetrain: Starts, runs, shifts into gear and drives. It is happieston the highwayat 55 MPH in comparison to traveling aroundtown, expecta good amount of rattles, road noise, and minimal fuel economy definitelynot your daily driver.
Body; the bodyand frame have a considerable amount of rust.Unfortunately, due to negligence, the rear bumper was damaged when it was removed for transport toNJ. (please see pictures)
Interior;interior is in fair condition and present. (please refer to pictures)
The bad;Considerable rust and rot throughout, there are some holes in the driver's compartment floor. (by the acceleratorand behind passenger seat) when the fuel tank is full it may leak (don't overfill it), leaks transmissionfluid, does not have working heat. The car can be problematic at times, simply will not start.(noticed this after has been running for some time). willrequire extensive work to bring back to its glory days.
The good; 66,000originalmile vehicle with clear title, Starts, runs, and shifts, for the most part,a complete vehiclewith many hard to find components. All glass is present and intact, trim pieces are present, has working siren and emergency lighting, (some of the warning lights work intermittently) medical equipment will be included in the sale.
