Ugly? Hell yes.
Ugliest Cadillac I've ever seen? Not even close. I'd rather drive that abomination than a Cimaraon or Catera.

But at least its original.........

I've seen some similar looking Cadillac hearses of that era somewhere on-line, maybe Yann's Database, they were from another country also, some countries just have different style hearses than us, at least they choose a Cadillac. I would have liked to seen a picture from the back, they have 5 pictures of the right side, 1 close up of left side back.

The back is probably a platform area for attendants to stand during the procession. Some old horse drawn coaches had things like that. It's in remarkably good shape. I wonder if it was still being used for funerals when it was "put away three years ago"?

Yes it's different all right - the car has been featured in a good few books about Cadillacs
