A still life of a wreck in a barn.
Once it was a classy hearse, which guided a lot of people on their last journey. It got older but still was looking good. Someday its owner bought a new one. From this time it was unnecessary. The owner gave it away. Maybe a few month it was standing on the ground of a second-hand car dealer until someone new was interested in it. He bought it and from now on this old hearse was used to transport surfbords to the beach and maybe as a campmobile. It was not necessary anymore that it looked classy. The new owner put a lot of sticker and other surferstyle accessories on it. Symptoms of old age were retouch the easy way. And someday the old hearse was not announced anymore. The Owner bought an VW-Bus or something that was looking more like a surfer-mobile than our old hears. It was put in a corner. There the ravages of time gnaw on it for a few years. Until someone else found it. He was taken with this old beauty, bought it and put it in his barn. Sometime he will restore it. Sometime it will shine in its old glance, maybe.

Hello!

Is it yours by any chance ?
Did you see the movie Harold and Maude ?
He turned a Jaguar Type E into a hearse.
The owner can do a cool car with this one.
Perhaps, it could have been more dramatic, and artistic looking from the front, close to the grill
