Presumably would have left the factory in pick-up/flatbed form?

Judging by the extended body line from the cab and the vents on the rear quarter that started life as a crew cab pick up.

That thing was the nuts, built from an Irish bodied 59 Chevy, was in Custom Car at the time but seems to have vanished since

Was for sale in 2010 which is when the last logbook was issued

Coleman and Milne bodied Mercedes E350 hearse, run by Greens Carriage Masters a 'fleet provider of hearses, limousines and funeral services', that London. Here's some more of theirs -

They describe this one as a 'Hearsette'. And, of course, they have a 'trailer hearse' -

Each to their own, but I find them utterly tasteless and tacky, a bit like the enormous tombstone/monument things I've started to notice in graveyards which appear to be for showing how much more important the dead person was than everyone else around them
