I purchased my orange XW GTHO Phase I in 1971 or 1972 from a very reluctant seller.

Some of us may have pondered our farewell – just how will we say goodbye to this world?
For Valiant and Chrysler fans – this could be the ultimate send off – your last ride in an incredibly unique VG Hearse. One of only three believed to have been built by a South Australian coachbuilder using the designs from Chrysler Australia.
The car appears to be built using mostly original Valiant parts – based on a VG Hardtop body. The roof from a VG wagon has been grafted to a C-pillar from a VG sedan, with the rear window design based on the VG VIP sedan. By using mostly factory original parts the car presents very well proportioned, and because of the limited use – is in outstanding condition.
Owning a hearse isn’t for everyone – but if you were looking for a weekend cruiser that is unlike any other car on the road – you won’t find ANYTHING out there quite like this!
