  1. The top ambulance looks like a 47 or 48 Buick. The second one is a Cadillac from around the same time. I found some information about ambulances and hearses made by Flxible, which had about 5" of material added to the hood and firewall to match the taller rear body. It sounds like the reverse of sectioning a hot rod.

    Here's a stock 48 Buick

    Here's another Buick hearse in the UK with the same hood with some history.
