•
Taken out of storage in October 2015, and furnished with new fluids and a new
battery
•
We were able to start the ambulance and drive it out of the storage unit; it
was then towed to its present location.
•
Clean title.
• It
still has most or all of the original rescue equipment & materials from
when it was used at the hospital – including oxygen tanks, a stretcher, toe
tags, Band-Aids – all the stuff you’d expect – including kids’ coloring books, all pointing back to the years it was in service in Canada.
•

•
By law, the sirens & emergency lights were disabled prior to it being

put it back on the road.

Bonneville Sedan
Ambulance
Description
Description: a 1967 Pontiac Bonneville Sedan ambulance currently owned by a physician who
purchased the car with the intent to use it in parades to promote his
podiatrist practice. It was shipped from
Pennsylvania to Iowa in 2007. The doctor
is simplifying his life. I work for him
and his wife.
When
the ambulance was in Pennsylvania it was used in a “scare” house – hence the
decals. We can attach a photo of how it
originally looked when it was in service at St. Catharine’s Hospital in Canada. It still has most or all of the original
rescue equipment & materials from when it was used at the hospital –
including oxygen tanks, a stretcher, toe tags, Band-Aids – all the stuff you’d
expect – including kids’ coloring books, all pointing back to the years it was
in service in Canada. It is a almost as
if the ambulance drivers simply walked away from it when they “decommissioned”
it.
He
has had it in storage for the better part of 7 years. We took it out of storage, moved it to its
current location (in the Cedar Rapids area in Iowa), and took the photos we’ve
posted– except the one “original” as mentioned above. We put all new fluids in, a new battery, etc, and were able to start the ambulance and drive it out of the storage unit. However, because we did not have plates – and
it didn’t sound great – we chose to tow it to its present location. I most certainly think you’d have to have a
mechanic look over the engine & transmission to determine if you could
drive it to your present location. Given
that it sat for so long, you would probably do better to have it towed.
Here’s
what else we can tell you. The tires
were new when they were put on. By law, the sirens & emergency lights were disabled prior to it being shipped to
Iowa. The photos do not show the main
big red light that you’d expect to see on the roof. I would assume it was removed when it was
shipped to Iowa. However, it is inside
the vehicle and can easily be re-installed.
There
is some cosmetic damage to the passenger body – I believe rear of the middle
door. That would require some body
work. We have the Title, and it is
clean.
Overall, I would say it is in excellent, vintage condition, waiting for the right person
or business to restore it and put it back on the road.
I can send more detailed pictures upon request
