Companies such as Accubuilt and Eagle produce these unusual vehicles, but only on a special order basis and the cost of the vehicle must be paid up-front." Superior is now a brand offered by Accubuilt and not a stand alone coach builder as they were in 1984 when the article references the discontinuing of the flower car. Also, according to the most current information from the <a href="http://www.accubuilt.com/index_funeralvehicles.html" rel="nofollow">Accubuilt Website,</a> Superior does not currently offer a flower car in their product listings. S&S has a flower car available. But Superior does not. A Superior branded Flower car would be a special order. Brian,

At the time of this post (May 2009), Superior does in fact offer a Flower Car as part of their line up. In May 2008, took a tour of Accubuilt's (Superior Coach, Sayers & Scoville, and Eureka) plant in Lima, Ohio. The tour guide said that one mortuary in the U.S. purchases their Flower Car, and it's located in Atlanta. Your statement that Superior Coach no longer offers a Flower Car is not true.
