In this same scene a few seconds later, the rear of the funeral car is shown, where you can clearly see a sandblasted palm leaf design on the rear tailgate window, a characteristic exclusive to Abbott & Hast built "junior hearse" conversions. If you'd like to see more photos of Abbott & Hast conversions, see my photo album link.
