Building, or stretching a vehicle and make it a limousine is a very complicated job.
Building, or stretching a vehicle and make it a limousine is a very complicated job. The process of taking astandard, mass-produced automobile such as a Lincoln Towncar or a Hummer limo and producing a fullsized, fully loaded limousine involves many processes. In addition to these processes, a team of well trainedprofessionals are required. Such professionals are safety professionals, engineers, mechanics, interiorfabricators, and welders. A base vehicle, usually a Lincoln Towncar, which is the standart vehicle, is brought from the manufacturerand then is stripped, cut, and separated into two separate halves. Many mass produced vehicles start thisprocess, from Cadillacs, Escalades, to Hummers; although, many such vehicles are not recommended to bestretched into Limousines. Once split, the vehicle has its framework extended with steel structures - this establishes the "stretch". Thestructures are welded into place and require very detailed precision to ensure a consistent, uniform structureof the chassis; an inconsistent "stretch" could cause both mechanical and safety concerns in the future. The added "stretch" module typically requires custom components and are internally produced by eachindividual coachbuilder. Such components include fiberglass, abs plastic, laser lights, wood finishes,upholstery, wood cabinetry, interior trim, laser cut metal fabricated parts, electrical finishes and more.

This is where all added partsand assemblies are prepped for painting. After prep, the vehicle is painted, or "baked" in a paint sprayroom. After painting, the vehicle is fashioned with the necessary electrical systems which include full limousinewiring. Next, it is furnished with detailed interior amenities by professionals. These amenities may include,luxury seating, mirror finishes, wood trim, glass holders, and other luxury amenities. After completion, the limousine undergoes a thorough inspection process and road test which examinesdrivability, undercarriage, amenities, water leaks, and more. Each inspection varies by coachbuilder. In these days every coachbuilder tries to design the most beautiful vehicle at a lower price as competitionis getting fierce.
