For Sale at Auction: 1959 Cadillac Hearse in Las Vegas, Nevada
This fan-made replica of the Ghostbusters Ectomobile was built from
a 1959 Cadillac Superior hearse. Driveable and meant for the
street, this car features 11,250 miles (mileage not indicated on
the title), and is powered by a 390ci 8-cylinder V8 engine mated to
an automatic transmission, both of which were rebuilt in 2012. In
2018, a replacement of the carrier bearing and driveshaft was
performed, as well as a complete rebuild of the braking system to
include heavy-duty truck brakes and a reconditioning of the gas
tank. Some of the many upgrades for modernization and reliability
include an Edelbrock carburetor, Pertronix ignition, electric fuel
pump with dual front and rear filters, dual brake cylinders,
separate oil and water-cooling systems with dedicated fans,
conventional lug posts and dual batteries, as well as a GelCell for
the car and a deep-cycle for the accessories. The twin alternators
put out 440 amps to assure peak voltage in a slow parade with all
the features turned on. The external PA system and
internal/external stereo run separately from each other, which
allows both to be used at the same time, playing the stereo
externally while either talking to the crowd on the PA or running
the siren. The seats and interior are all original and the dash is
autographed by eight members of the cast and crew. The roof rack
collapses at the hit of a button and the laser turret can be
remote-controlled from two different positions in the car, or by
using a handheld remote when walking outside. The car's five
cameras can be viewed from three monitors inside the car. The
suspension was enhanced to support the additional thousand pounds
of weight from all the additional equipment. Additionally, the car
comes with all props and accessories, which include four Proton
Packs, the stretcher rack and other ghost-catching equipment. The
Proton Packs are about 35 pounds each and can be worn. Each pack
contains lights and a portable stereo system, and are each
approximately valued at $1,500. All movie props and accessories
seen in the pictures are included, as well as a few uniform flight
suits in various sizes.
