Johan Heavenly Hearse , built badly by someone 40 odd years ago and picked up by me from Ebay. The car was mostly complete and came apart with no problems . The Purple paint was the closest I could find to the box art ; it was some spray from a craft store and then clear coated. I was able to polish out most of the glue spots on the glass but a few were permanent and were covered up with the butterflies and bumper stickers. Most of the trim was covered with Bare Metal Foil. The main Hearse decals are NOS ones off of Ebay and went on like they were new. The curtain decals you may recognize from the reissued Zingers series (I actually found a use for them ! LOL ) I picked up a resin set of the Landau bars which were an exact replacement for the broken ones I had. The only parts I didn't use were the side lanterns, they just looked really odd even for a car like this.
