   Anybody ever seen one of these before?  It would make a cool hotrod / ratrod.  Must be REAL rare to be asking that much!

	While very interesting, I doubt it is a factory truck model (used to be a big caddy man, owned a 63 convertible, and my brother still has his 64 convertible). I checked a couple of sources and there is no truck chassis listed for 54 from the factory. There was a single blank chassis only sold that year. but any body work would have been custom and not from the factory. As many caddy bodies were sold and made over to hearses (hearses were typically custom body work by outside providers), it is quite possiable that this is how this came to be. If they had posted the VIN, it would have been easier to verify. Robert
