- Go on an adventure with us as we take you along for a tour of over 300+ Classic Vehicles at Lyon's Vintage Junkyard in Loretto, KY. We buy a 1971 Pontiac Hearse from David and Patrick Lyon (Owners) and gave it the name "Dead Reliable". If interested in parts or checking out their yard give them a call at 270-865-2212. We are also in search of any information of the history of the hearse; it was last tied to Kennedy Funeral Home in Winamac, IN.

Daniel and Brittany you never fail to disappoint! Keep up the great work and God bless y’all
Thank you! You too!
Ummm… “Never fail to disappoint “? Did you say that right ?
jack up ..
Possible name for the Pontiac- Death Dealer; Holy Schnike Edition.
Nice!!
Thank you for showing the small guy in salvage.... Also scripture in video 😅
Thank you! David plays a crucial role in saving all these vehicles from instantly being crushed; now they can live on for someone else to pick up then fix or go on as parts to help other's fix their cars.
Superior Coach has built funeral hearse vehicles in Lima Ohio for years and years. They're still doing these conversions today there and selling them around the country. It's highly likely it was built there.
Thanks! That's really cool!
I thought I had a rare hearse, mine is just a 1977 Chrysler Town & Country hearse I got last year for free for helping my friends daughter with his estate after his passing. So far after year of work she is ready for her first drive in 30 years. I hope it will be, well not a show stopper at the Mopar Nationals but it will be the only one like it. And it will be the only Chrysler at the hearse rally in Michigan, to bad thay don't hold it in Hell Michigan anymore, thay out grew the facility. Don't see very many Pontiacs there either or at all. Very interesting though! Hope to see more video of the hearse in progress.
Wow! I don't think I've seen one of those before. That's awesome you've got it to the point of being ready to drive! We haven't heard of that show, I will see if I can find some information on it. Thank you!
New sub and enjoyed the video. Keep up the good work.
Thank you!! Welcome!
never put a jack sideways when pulling forward!!
It's not Daniels preferred method of getting a vehicle on the trailer; but it lifted the car and got it off the stuck points along with putting down pressure on the trailer.
thats funny im a fan of corey wheats customs also and they just bought a 61 caddy hearse
Yes! We are so excited for them! We'd love to have both of the hearses together at the same place and time.
All that weight hanging on the tow ball. You lucky somebody didnt get the bones broken or heads smashed. Flat tyres on the rear. Locked up brakes on the rear. And you knew you was comming back to collect. Micky mouse opperation. And im only ten mins in. Hard on Equipment. Now i got to watch the whole deal. Lol.
We are just working with what we have. I've been doing this for 15 years with almost no budget. All our stuff gets the job done and we have always managed to get home safe. This one was actually one of the easier ones we've pulled all things considered. I maintain all my equipment, if i didn't we would not be successful in doing what we do with worn out garbage. Maybe one day I will have a better budget to get better equipment, but for now I'm doing what I can with what I have.
@@ResurrectedGarage not talking about old Equipment. It's the process of loading. Jack up the rear remove the wheel and tyre. Remove the hub or unlock the hub to roll. And bring aired up tyres to help lift the rear to load on trailer. Or jack up and put blocks under suspension.. not exactly your average classic. You should put 6x6 blocks under rear of trailer. Tow balls are not designed to be pulled up. And will break or weaken them. Check out Mr Goodpliars and there loading technic. You are staining your winch and cables. Just a little prep will make lite work of the job.. it looks Ameture for fifteen years doing this. I'm still watching. I let you know. Good luck.
Next time you get ramps rear tires on your truck
That definitely would have helped.
Dear Brittany and Daniel,
Willeke and I had some fun when you were loading the Cadillac hearse on the trailer at the moment there was said: “we need to lift the body”. With a hearse this did sound for us hilarious 😀.
What a bunch of cars this junk yard has by the way.
We look forward to your next vlog and send you love from the Netherlands
HAHA I didn't think about that! That is pretty funny. Yes they have a lot!
The 1956 on the front of that Buick was good in 1956, but as soon as 1957 came around, people were unhappy to be advertising that they were driving last years’ model.
I didn't think about that aspect; nowadays its a cool feature but back when it was new I could see how that would be a slight bummer.
That's alot of car for that trailer.
It is, that is why we took all backroads from Kentucky back to Georgia. It would have been much faster to just hit the interstate but we were trying to be cautious as possible hauling heavy.
What the do you want with that
Our plan is to go through it to get it road ready then we will have a tow vehicle we can sleep in. We will often sleep in the vehicle when we are on our way to events and having a pre 1980 vehicle we can do that with has been one of our wants. We use our blue 77 F150 shop truck to haul with but it's not comfortable for both of us to sleep in on the road.
Hey guys !!
Hey there! Can't wait to see your video tonight, we've been dying to see it. ;-)
Very KOOL Yard and Nice Score on the Hearse
Thank you!
Awesome ride! Short time to get it ready for PowerTour!
Thanks! We aren't sure which event we are going to do yet. Power Tour, Sick Summer, and Alaska Race week are all that same date this year.
@@ResurrectedGarage that sounds awesome no matter which one you pick. The Power Tour is way to close to my house for me not to go this year.
thats going to become a really cool tow rig
We hope so! :-)
What are you looking for
We were hoping to find someone who knew the history of Kennedy Funeral Home in Winamac IN. Google searches didn't pull up that funeral home.
Was there a motor
No the 455 motor was removed before we got it.
Y all are awesome keep it up.Dale from Jefferson
Thank you!!
