LOL that's stupid.

thats totally awsome, i wanted to be burried in a 68 shelby, anyone know the rules of being barried in a car? Is it allowed?

thats so creepy......dead personnnnnn

PIMP PIMP

Ask your City/Town Hall.

That would be such a terrible waste of a classic car

im tryin to convince my dad to burry himself in his 70 hemi cuda, thats one expensive casket

Hahaha. Nice coffin. I would like my coffin to be a BMW.

That looks so cheap. The tires look like they are made of foam and just leaning against the casket stand. The grill looks like its glued or just leaning. Why does the box holding the steering wheel say WIMP? Was he a coward?

bahahaha thats wack...

I seen a guy buried in a royals royce once!

Damn... now that is mega pimp!

LOL! i didnt even notice it said "WIMP" wtf

Thats Willie the wimp, one of the baddest pimps in all Chicago back in the early 80's.... He got gunned down outside his girlfriends house one night....

That pic is from 83-84... Its his cadillac coffin.

PIMP PIMP

Willie the Wimp? LMAO

thats a nice way to go.

Here is the story and the song from Stevie Ray

Willie the Wimp

Willie the Wimp was buried today,
They laid him to rest in a special way.
Sent him off in the finest style
That casket-mobile really drove 'em wild
Southside Chicago will think of him often
Talkin' 'bout Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin,
Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin

That casket, it looked like a fine Seville
He had a vanity license and a Cadillac grille
Willie was propped up in the driver's seat
He had diamonds on his fingers and a smile sweet
Fine red suit had the whole town talkin'
Talkin' 'bout Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin

Oh, Cadillac to Heaven he was wavin' the banner
He left like he lived, in a lively manner
With a-hundred dollar bills in his fingers tight
He had flowers for wheels and a-flashin' headlights
He been wishin' for wings, no way he was walkin'
Talkin' 'bout Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
Yeah, Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin

NOTE:

While looking through his SRV collection, Carsten came across on a rare Promo 12" vinyl maxi single with "Willie the Wimp" from Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble. It's from 1986 and its catalogue number is EAS 2615 XSS 174015.

Carsten writes,
On the white cover of this vinyl recording, there's a long text (in big red font) about Willie The Wimp. I never saw this text anywhere else and found it very interesting. Maybe it's also of interest for you guys. Here it is:


Stevie Ray Vaughan 'Willie The Wimp'
Chicago's underworld heritage. Here's the biograph theatre where they shot Dillinger in the alley. Down the street there is where they held the St. Valentine's Day massacre. The city of Al Capone. Machine-gun Kelley. Guys named Bugsy.
On the south side of Chicago in more recent times, there were a couple of dudes with very bad reputations; Flukey Stokes and his son Willie the Wimp. They beat people up. They sold drugs. They became wealthy. Willie the Wimp was shot in 1984 and dad threw a funeral. Thousands were invited. Even more invited themselves. People don't often see the recently departed sitting up and holding the steering wheel of a coffin modeled after the Cadillac Seville. A coffin with flashing lights and flowers for wheels. Oh sure, there were some other thoughtful touches, rings on his fingers and c-notes stuck like cigarettes in his hands.

The post-burial birthday party for Willie the Wimp was held at the same motel where Willie was shot. So it was, Willie the Wimp became more famous in his coffin than he had been in the street. It's a story that inspires song. Flukey Stokes was gunned down last November as he sat in his car. We thought you'd like to know Stevie Ray isn't singing about some Mickey Spillane fiction. He's singing about Chicago.

Thanks Carsten!

So that's willy the wimp..I always wondered..I love Stevie Ray

I'd rather go out in a KISS Koffin

Pimp my casket

When I die I shall haunt GFY.

hahahahahahah

I Really Don't Think The Things You People On Here Saying Is Funny Because While You People Are Laughing Like Its Funny I Have To Console My Husband About This Shit Everyday Because The Man In The Casket Is His Brother That Died When He Was Only3yrs Old How Would You Feel If It Was Your Brother Or Faher Regaurdless Of What Lifestyle They Live

that's so stupid.

Not Funny At All

I DON'T THINK YOU WOULD BE LAUGHING IF YOU KNEW THAT MY HUSBAND HAS TO SIT AND READ THE FORUM THAT YOU STARTED ABOUT HIS BROTHER BECAUSE RIGHT NOW I DON'T THINK IT'S FUNNY AT ALL,I'M REALLY HAVING A HARD TIME AS IT IS WITH HIM DEALING WITH EVERYWHERE HE LOOKS PEOPLE ARE STILL TALKING ABOUT IT DAMN! SPARE US WIH THEE B.S

1 You Are A Surfer, And The Way You Make Every Word Start With A Capitol Is Annoying

that looks so fucking stupid.

if he is really dad i just have to wonder...

You want to die being killed in a pimp coffin? WTF?

I hope that's just a joke...

LETS GET IT STRAIGHT I AM THE WIFE OF A MAN WHO YOU GUYS SEEM TO THINK THAT IS AMUSING TO SEE THAT HIS BROTHER WAS BURRIED IN A CADDI, WHICH MEANS I THINK BESIDES ME HAVING EVERY LETTER CAPITOLIZED YOU MAD ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE!

guys can we keep the subject to pussy, ass, tits, and making money.

Stupid as it gets.

God that's retarded.

haha... nice rims!

ha ha ha ha ha ha I already am!!!!!

if your dad is dead, i think you will have a hard time convincing him.
if he is alive, thats really mean of you to want to bury him alive!

the funny thing about that photo is they put Wimp, not Pimp

For one thing this is a webmaster board and we can discuss anything we want. For another thing if you put that picture on the net then it was bad taste because anything you put on the net becomes public domain in the sense that anyone can repost your pics. And if you didn't put them up then you should have payed more attention to who was taking pictures at the funeral. I'm not trying to be an ass or disrespectful of the dead but thats the way the net works

Thats just classic. Whats even more classic is "family" in the thread shitting on us for goofing on a pimp in a caddy casket.

Thanks for the background Herb, nice story.

He's definitely not gonna be pulled over for speeding

that totally rocks!!!

I don't like it
death is not a nice subject
