Re: Ghostbusters Ecto-1 Magnum

:thumbsup very nice, I'm a sucker for the original from the movies, but gotta say..this modern look for the car is pretty damn cool. Maybe the new team from the next movie will use ur design...

Aaaand one more from Seattle.

We had a lot of fun in the Seattle area. Visited the Boeing plant, drove all over the place, ran into a convoy of 20 other Magnums to say hi, lots of good stuff. But here's the number 1 story of the trip:

Late Saturday night, while trying to discern the location of a rattling sound coming from under the car, I got hit by a police officer's flashlight beam. What started with the simple question of "is that yours or are you stealing it?" turned into a telling of now-mythical anecdotes and ended with me giving him a ride around the block, onking at people and playing "Bad Boys" out the roof speakers.

I agree - it's an awesome modern take on the original. Not many cars would have turned out this nice, but it's really something cool and in it's own way strangely unique and acceptable from those who love the original!! Superb work!!!

Hope you continue to have a blast with it!

Make sure if you ever loan this out you don't sign off on un covered transport LMFAO!

Re: Ghostbusters Ecto-1 Magnum

Nice new pics! All the vehicles in the St. Patrick's Day parade (I assume?) reminded me that when I was out driving around Milwaukee last Saturday, all of a sudden the A-Team van was right next to me!

Nice! We have a number of A-team vans in the area, but they are all utility or construction vans.

This one in particular stands out as it has the perfect three-tone paint job.

but that one won't be at a car show as an a-team van anytime soon, ugh!
 
Re: Ghostbusters Ecto-1 Magnum

Took them movie cars on a fall colors trip through Rocky Mountain National Park last weekend.

Here are some giant pics.

Yes that's a 911 dressed up as Herbie. But that's also a Magnum dressed as Ecto-1 so I'm not gonna fault him.

Your replica is ok....This one is badass...the paint on this car was glow-in-the-dark. It had a 6000 watt radio in it. Whenever he was paid to come to parties he would turn the radio up blocks away from his destination so all the little kids would hear ghostbusters song coming.
