Flower cars were generally built by the professional car manufacturers, like Superior, Armbruster or Stageway. I think these cars were all built for private owners, but I didn't realize that Gene Winfield was involved in their design. There were also some Cadillac station wagons built over the years by various companies.

When I was a kid Evel Knievel would cruise around town in a Cad like that with a Harley in it.
