Can not take it with you?
Who says you cant take it with you.

sounds like a good idea... although when you purchase your burial plot, make sure it's big enough.
some day we all die. when that day comes, a stranger will dress us up in a suit and put us in the ground for eternity. now that's a nice morbid thought.

Nah, I think I wanna' be cremated. In a rented tuxedo of course.
 The car thing has been done - a woman in Beverly Hills was buried in her Ferrari a few years back (the car was encapsulated in a large amount of concrete).

I think I'll just park my 911 in a barn somewhere, and several years from now, a new Pelicanite will have a "Found in a barn" story.
It's just a car. I'm sure someday a normal casket will fit me just fine. |

If you want to be cremated, be careful of who gets your ashes....They might snort you.

I think I am gonna donate myself to science. I will god damned if anybody in the 'death industry' is gonna get me. The death industry is the biggest racket out there. You are required by law to buy an expensive box for your corpse?! Please!

Wasn't Elvis buried in his Cadillac?
I'd rather someone continue to enjoy my 911 when my time with it is done. Besides, it can't possibly be good for the environment to bury a car, no matter how carefully you clean the fluids out.

Frugal Yankee Coffins is a bizz here in town. The guy will build you a pine box for 250 bucks.

There was a lady in R.I. who was buried in her Corvair a few years back. (casket was placed IN the car then buried).
(as for me, I wish for my ashes to be scattered by friends tooling around the Nurburgring)

Even for a Ferrari, that'd stink like holy hell. You'd NEVER get the smell out. Ever. Not worth it. Maybe to part.
