Put To Rest in a 1967 Chevy Pickup
Welcome to Chevroletpedia’s Weekend Edition - today’s discussion: A man in West Virginia has his final wish fulfilled, as he was laid to rest in the back of his 1967 Chevrolet Pickup. I guess God needed a hillbilly.
Albert Dancy Jr. of Clay Country, W. VA. passed away last week at the tender age of 50. As it was stated in his will: the casket (containing his body, dressed in camo, clutching an Old Timer pocketknife and Remington .243 caliber deer rifle) was lowered into a 19 ft long/9 ft wide hole across the bed of his 67 Chevy.
In order to pull this final resting place off, Dancy’s son had to start a family plot on their own land, as no cemetery would allow the one-ton pickup to be buried on their property. The truck was stripped of anything that could harm the environment, including motor, transmission, brake fluid and tires. After being put underground a vault with the casket was lowered into its bed and covered with dirt. Rest in peace sir, your dedication to General Motors was unflappable.
