Posted August 27, 200915 yr The Hot Rod Spectacular is on this weekend at Burswood Dome. http://www.autocult.com.au/Event.aspx?id=31 http://www.burswood.com.au/Shows-and-Promo...ine+Spectacular We have been invited to display our 1959 Cadillac Hearse along with other 1959 Cadillacs, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the 1959 cadillac models. So, I have been very busy with both my leadlight work and preparing the hearse for display and sorting out props appropriate to the hearse for an "interesting "display. I may not be around much over the next few days due to both work commitments and the Hot Rod Show. But if anyone's interested I will take some photos. There is likely to be photos in hotrod magazines later on as well of this show, and not necessarily the hearse. My husband managed to buy a coffin and a full sized skeleton, anmd we have the usual spook type display pieces as well. Ken named the skeleton LURCH Tomorrow we set up the dislay and Saturday at 9 am the doors open to the public. Edited August 30, 200915 yr by KAZ
