New Ecto-1 (Ghostbusters 2016) + clones

[2FAB]

Photos have been released of the new Ecto-1 from next year's "Ghostbusters" reboot. It's a 1980s Cadillac hearse. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but in my opinion, there's really nothing that distinguishes this from some tribute car.

Yeah, it's not very stylish, but on the other hand the 80's Ghostbusters movie use a 25-30 year old car... this one's really about the same years removed from present day so I can see how it worked out that way.

From the above article:

We still haven’t figured out why they kept the red paint job across the top and back, but maybe it has something to do with the fact the new team consists of women only.

I just assumed it's because on the original Ecto-1 the fins were red.

- I didn't put clone in the title because it would seem it was built as a promo car for the movie and that's how it was used. It's not in the movie but did make appearances here and there. Buy It Now $6,300







It's been for sale before, the pics above are from this auction but there are clearer pics around of this car.

This car was used by Cinemark motion picture To promote the new Ghostbusters movie The car runs great it has cold ac and the heat will run you out. The back of the Car is carpeted with black carpet, all the lights on top work, the rims are brand new just painted them red. The logo on the hood has been hand-painted, there is a crack in the windshield and a small rust spot on the back door, other than that the car is very clean.

- I don't think we have this one posted anywhere here yet. Buy It Now is $97,000 . It was apparently completed in 2017 and has been seen around at some promo events ? It's a '92 located in Miami.

The car is powered by its 5.0L engine. The Engine is well detailed includes, recent tune up, oil change, new battery, new air filter, serviced the brakes, spark plug wires, and spark plugs. There are no leaks under the vehicle and it has been sealed with professional grade undercoat. Functional lights and sirens, the car will play the Ghostbusters them song out loud! Also has a multi-function pad to control lights and sounds on the Ecto-1. There's a mini switch on left hand side of the steering wheel will control and activate the green computer box on the roof.
