Lovely documentary, I grew up with the Ghostbusters. I would always smile everytime I saw the Ecto-1 in the 80's cartoon or either movies. Brings back so many memories of my childhood. God bless
Welcome to the club, although I'm no longer in it. Owning an Ecto-1 is pretty much being on the top of the movie car food chain. The only problem is "the curse." It's not that "something" goes wrong, it's that some "one-in-a-million thing" goes wrong. A flood you say? Sean's Ecto tried to kill him at least once, mine tried to kill me several times. The minute you put that decal on the door, anything can happen. Godspeed Nick, it's an adventure.
I grew up with the Ghostbusters being my all time childhood favorite! It's been my dream to try to build a replicate ecto-one and I myself would like to do something similar as you did. I live in Los Angeles but cannot find anyone to help me locate and build which I know this is going to be the most difficult part, but I'm willing to look for someone to help me make this dream come true pay them for their time. I enjoyed your video 💯
I am aware that 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor Futura Duplex cars aren't easy to come by nowadays, but if I were fortunate to come across one in good condition on the outside and inside a little rusted that someone wanted to sell at a fair reasonable price, I would definitely buy it, take it off of their hands and convert it into my very own film-accurate replica of the Ecto-1 down to the last detail and I would use the Blitzway 1/6 scale Ecto-1 as a reference model and the Haynes Ectomobile Owner's Workshop Manual to have something to go by.
As a Ghostbuster fan, I understand the time and money it took to realize your dream car was truly a labor of love a homage to a franchise that still inspires fans to create their own Ecto-1 or take part in a fan production.
The only thing that's not spot on is the license plate. It should be new York with the statue of liberty. With California plates it looks very Hollywood
How is he supposed to actually drive the car with fake license plates? I'm sure he has the "official" plates for car shows and when Ecto is not on the streets.
Definitely inspiring! We’re gonna be creating our own Ecto one soon as well! Definitely too much nostalgia, money, and time put into that car to just junk it after a flood. Glad it’s back in operation!
Thank you for not painting the storage tube on the passenger side neon greenish yellow. Idk why people do that, it is not accurate, the only reason people think it is that color is because toy/model manufacturers can’t make the car too accurate due to licensing.

The Ghostbusters was my first favorite cartoon along with the Ecto-1

Can we hear more on this curse?
Yes, the evil spirits are attracted to the car out of revenge lol

I hate resellers so much. I wish I got the car sooner. Did you see the new one they're releasing from the new film?
@@HonkeyKong54 Not yet.
Love to see all these Ecto-1's meet up
Yeah Imagine, You Got This Ecto, Clint Orr’s 65 Ecto, Then You Got Ect-Ohio

Don't talk. Just show. With mind movie
Shut up!!!
Awesome documentary!
Thank you!
The Ecto-1 was base on the 1962 cadilac miller meteor
The video: super fan builds ecto-1
The first song that plays: Weegee time!
My absolute dream car!!
Make the echo 1 from the second movie
This is literally my dream car! I wish I could have this
My dream car is KARR from knight rider lol
@@thefirebirdflock3440 lol, good choice
If you want the car, save up and make it! I’m about to start in a few months building my Ecto one.
@@Coastiestevie awesome!
Seen u on St George Avenue a month ago and your vehicle rolling down Avenel New Jersey
I love this car but on a side note does anyone ever want to restore a Miller Meteor back into an ambulance or hearse?
The only thing that's not spot on is the license plate. It should be new York with the statue of liberty. With California plates it looks very Hollywood

It be so cool if I would own the Ghostbusters car
Posso vederla da vicino? Dove si trova?
Love the car and it is apparent how much love went into it!
and having this as your wedding car, beyond amazing!
Does it have the siren too?
I want one too!
but I think since the 59 M-M Cadillac is hard to find I'd use a different hearse/ambulance
Invest in a BENDPAK vehicle maintenance lift.
10 foot maximum lift capacity. 😉
OMG 😳😳 I just can't hold myself just seeing this event of ghost 👻 buster I myself start crying 😂😂 of joy I love Ghostbusters all the movies 💕💕
Definitely inspiring! We’re gonna be creating our own Ecto one soon as well! Definitely too much nostalgia, money, and time put into that car to just junk it after a flood. Glad it’s back in operation!
It's wonderful! If I'm ever in the California area, I am so bringing my uniform
Hey, can you drive that Ecto-1 here to Mississippi? I've always wanted to know what it's like to ride in one of those!

Ten seconds in, Luigi's mansion music, love it already
Well done. Glad u got it up and going again. Fellow ecto builder in south africa.
I'd sell my house for this. And live in it. Lmao
I am in total envy, ecto1 is me and my brother's dream car
how does he do all this and then forget the plate lol
That's so cool, man. 👍
👏👏👏👏💘são Paulo , Brasil!
This is beautiful❤❤❤
Good work my friend.

How did he mess up on the cyclotron
Haha I thought the same immediately when I saw it.
ECTO
Wonder what this would sell for
I saw a ghostbusters 2 replica that wasn't in as mint of shape go for over 200,000
It can also double as a hurst.
What’s a hurst?
@@ezehogan He means a hearse, a funeral car.
Even cooler than a delorean

Awesome documentary we should be friends, LOVE GhostBusters!
