1990's Caprice wagon "Ecto's" (Ghostbusters)

[Steam McQueen]

Being a Caprice wagon there was no need to add clone to the title. Maybe that's what the "C" stands for .

The roof rack is welded 14 gauge 1" tube steel, the rear tank is an LP tank welded to the roof rack. The light bars are controlled via keychain remote. The lights are independently powered by a deep cycle marine battery. The LED message boards work but need a high-powered inverter to run them. (about 2000 watts continuous.) They were pretty expensive and I didn't have enough for a big inverter and just never got around to it. It has a sliding proton pack rack that holds 4 packs. I built the roof rack to be hurricane proof so you don't have to worry about driving at highway speeds.

There's lots more info at the link, and other vids of it on youtube, but here's the vid from the auction ...

I guess some of the diehards might not like it but I think it's a hoot. Here's another vid of it driving, from almost 4 years ago!

I like it and applaud the fact that they didn't destroy a '59 Cadillac. Thumbs up from me for this one.

Here's another Caprice, a '94 this time. Work with what ya got, eh! Buy It Now $5,900

I estimate the mileage around 165,000. The car runs well and has an extra fan installed for auxiliary cooling for parades and sitting for a long time. I have had this car running for over four hours with the lights on and it never touches the battery. The auxiliary cooling is controlled by an extra toggle switch installed through the dash board.
