Pardon My Hearse: A Colorful Portrait Of Where The Funeral And Entertainment Industries Met In Hollywood - Plot & Excerpts
He knew a couple in North Hollywood who owned a picture car rental company called Hollywood Picture Vehicles. Among their cars were five ambulances, two detective cars, six Checker cabs, and a hearse I had sold them. They wanted to sell the business, so Tim approached me about joining with him to buy it. They agreed to take half the asking price of $20,000 as a down payment and the balance in monthly installments. Kathy saw this as an opportunity to get involved in this business herself. She was very active and liked to exercise at least three days a week. It seemed to me that going back to work would have cramped her lifestyle, but she jumped at the chance to become the office manager for us. After we consummated the deal she started answering the phones and checking cars in and out. Several months into the business, we received a letter from the California Secretary of State’s office stating that the previous owners had used the business as collateral for a loan on which they had defaulted.
