Harley hearse

Tombstone Hearse

HARLEY-DAVIDSON FANS can finally take their final ride in style. In a Harley Hearse. Or wearing a Harley Hearse t-shirt. Tombstone Hearse began building hand-crafted Old West-style casket carriers that are pulled by a modified Harley-Davidson Road King.

"We take a regular bike and turn it into a motortrike with special gears to pull a heavier load," said company co-founder Dave Follmar. "We can accommodate most caskets, including oversized units."

Tombstone's hearse is designed with the traditional amenities but features a glass-enclosed carriage with curtains and tassels. Four gold lanterns adorn each corner and it's fitted with a black vinyl top. Tombstone's drivers are dressed in white tuxedo shirts, string ties, black pants and cavalry-style knee-high boots with a single spur.

"For any guy or gal who has sat their butt in a Harley seat all their lives, it doesn't seem fitting to lay them in the back of a Caddy for a farewell ride," Feather said.


AP -- "Company Creates Harley-Davidson Hearse" that rent from $500 to $600. Traditional hearses range from $125 to $475.
