So you’re dead and you’ve been cremated; now what? Get scattered in a warm ocean breeze? Be used as fertilizer for a young tree? This author considered being mixed into a dry rub to season a roasted lamb, but figures not enough family and friends would see the humor he sees in it. And nothing would be worse than dying and then being just leftovers.
Last Rides is a couple of guys who are more the ashes-on-the-mantle type, but really love their cars. So they came up with an idea: custom-made cremation urns modeled after the eternal occupant’s favorite car. All you do is submit a few pictures of the car which you’d like the urn to look like, and then wait. The urns are clay, and take roughly two to three months to make. Pricing depends on the car—simple shapes take less time to sculpt than, say, a ’32 Ford roadster with no fenders and an exposed engine—but we’re told that $2000 to $2500 is an average starting point.
