For Sale: 1956 Cadillac Superior in Stanley, Wisconsin

Vehicle Description

PLEASE NOTE - This vehicle is located in Pensacola, FL.

We'd like to introduce you to NoraJean - THE WORLD'S BEST TRAVELLED AMBULANCE!!

She is a 1956 Cadillac Super Rescuer Ambulance. She was built for the Fire Department in Isleton, CA.
The Super Rescuer was the largest and most expensive coach that Superior Coach Company built in 1956. It was the "top of the line" ambulance with a suggested retail price starting at $10,357. The Super Rescuer was designed to accommodate 4 patients with 51 inches of headroom.

ENGINE: 365 CID. V8
CHASSIS: Wheelbase 158", Overall Length 235.7"
BODY: Series 86 - no.154 of 286 built on a commercial chassis by Superior in 1956
WEIGHT: 5900lbs

The car was found and purchased in Sealy, Texas in 2010 and was then shipped to Perth, Western Australia. The body was stripped back to bare metal and every panel was straightened. Many, many pounds of lead were melted and removed from the roof allowing the rust to be remedied and the light tunnels rebuilt.

In 2015, the car was painted, the rebuilt engine and transmission installed, and the car was brought back to the USA where the interior was completed in 2020.

Receipts available to prove over $70,000 invested in the restoration of this beauty.

The meaning behind the name, NoraJean:
Nora was the seller's Grandmother who was a nurse in WW1 in France and died during WW2.
Jean was her favorite Aunt who is 93yrs old and lives in Canada.
