JoHan made the '65 or '66 Cadillac ambulance/hearse.  They've been OOP
for some time and are pricey when found.  The same outfit made the '68
Plymouth Fury police cars.  I think they are still available from Mr.
Spaulding.

AMT made a short series of 1/25th fire trucks, one of which is either
coming out soon or already out.  The '70 Ford Interceptor from RC/Ertl
is back out too under the "AMT" brand.

That leaves the '97 Ford Crown Vic from Lindberg.  It's a snapper but it
is detailed well.  The biggest booboo is that the wheels are not the
usual plain black steel wheels.  The kit uses chrome wheel/wheel covers.
HTH.

There was also a '37(?) Lasalle hearse from Aurora (IIRC) set up as a
surfer's buggy. Not terribly detailed and I think it was 1:32. Aurora
also did a garbage truck and some other vehicles in this scale.

I don't think Okey has them, but there's still a boatload of 'em
available on ebay.  Usually under $30, although some sellers think
they're worth more.  Ignore them.

There is a resin herse ambulance conversion body kit. I don't know what
kit you use with it.

There is also the Monogram Boot Hill Express!
