What I see does have a solid Heinel-vibe: Heinel Karosserifabrik of Malmö, Sweden. They would body each and everyone, but were also contractors of ANA, who were the Chrysler distributor in Sweden. So I could imagine some Chrysler/ Dodge/ Plymouth chassis underneath. Educated guesswork at its finest, by the way.

AnimatronixX ◊ 2020-11-21 21:36	OK, then! I stick with my Heinel-theory so far, but can't prove anything, as there is very little information about their funeral coaches. Heinels were in business back then and a 1962 Chrysler/ Dodge sedan is totally plausible for aforementioned reasons. The final result may look similar to this contemporary Pontiac below: Awww, dammit - too slow! I swear it wasn't snowing yet when I started uploading this picture...
