Challenge 941: My kingdom for a hearse
A recent visit to a stock car meeting gave me an opportunity to wander around the mechanics' area, where I spotted this somewhat battered but otherwise roadworthy vehicle.

It is, of course, a converted hearse.

Mariner will already be sharpening his touch-up brushes to restore it to its original glory, but for the rest of you: who would undertake their final journey in a car like this?

High res is here.

Maybe I will and maybe I won't. Make and model? Anyone?

To answer my own question: the car is a Mercedes-Benz W211 hearse.

Long time since I was at a stock car race. I used to go as a teenager.




So how many of you knew that Barbie's full name (no kidding) is Barbara Millicent Robbins?

Sorry I won’t be able to play either this week or the next couple of weeks as I’m off on my hols to photograph birds in Gambia and Senegal.

Y’all have fun while I’m away.

Well now ain't that strange Gordon and Loyd. I downloaded Karloff's Frankenstein monster and then decided he wasn't quite what I wanted and loved on to Barbie. Just as well now.
