I only nitpick when people say they have an exact replica when its not. I love when people make their own versions like this. Looks amazing

Honestly even with the inaccuracies its still a wonderful and beautiful car. Its a unique ecto for a unique ghostbuster.

Brother......do not worry about what Anyone else says. What matters is that anywhere you go...everyone knows what this is. You are inspiring great childhood memories from everyone who see this. It looks Fantastic! And what is more...this came from your heart. You are helping to keep the dream alive. Dan Aykroyd would be proud. If ANYONE has the right to pick this apart, it would be him. And Trust me...to Him...you are keeping his dream and ideology alive. Keep at this, man. Well done!!! What a beautiful thing to see.

One thing I enjoy about any Ecto-1, despite it having many differences to the OG, is that it always has a TON of personality. I see Ecto-1's people make using something like a modern van and it still looks great to me. I can't help but love the craftmanship that goes into any Ecto-1, no matter the inaccuracies and I've seen so much support from fans all around. Even though your car isn't an exact replica, I still can't help but enjoy it as much as the actual Ecto-1.

This guys love for Ghostbusters being re-ingnited by the new film is one of the best things

I've seen vans, cars, trucks and others modified into Ecto tribute vehicles. All are really cool. I have a suburban that I've been thinking about ecto-converting. It's all about the love of the films. I dig your car man, and can't wait to see more.

There’s a guy around here who has, I think, a green Kia Soul, as an Ecto-1. No emergency lights on top besides maybe small amber colored ones. Still awesome to see. The fact that you and your father even took the time to find an old Cadillac, and make it what it is now, is extremely impressive. I want to make an Ecto-1A, and for a while I was researching what was on the roof, trying to find a ‘59 or a ‘60, but the reality is, those cars are almost impossible to come by, and if you do they are really expensive, need a lot of maintenance, or both. Don’t let people criticize you for having inaccuracies. You’re not a giant movie studio with millions of dollars at your disposal, you’re a fan that wanted an Ecto-1. Most people who aren’t die hard fans wouldn’t even notice. They see the logos, they see the roof rack, and they are happy. At the end of the day, all that matters is you get pride and enjoyment out of the project you made. You did an amazing job, I didn’t even notice most of the inaccuracies until you pointed them out. And again, who cares? It’s still incredible

I can imagine if there were Ghostbusters franchises that they would've used whatever large multi passenger vehicles were available. Pay the franchise fee and provide some of your own equipment that isn't conducive to finding and capturing ghost.

I bet this car puts a smile on everyone's face who sees it and that's what really matters. To anyone who nitpicks this awesome replica, how accurate is YOUR Ecto-1?

You're wrong sir, your Ecto 1 is FREAKING AMAZING in all respects!!! I'm willing to bet people love that car and it brings everyone a smile...the ones that don't and nitpick just forget about them

It's brilliant!! who actually cares if its not exactly the same as the original film, it looks great and I'm sure brings joy to anyone who encounters it!

Dude, your video the other day was gold! Stay with the genuine nature!

Honestly for a bunch of kids just making this car for their own movie it looks pretty badass. No complaints here, my 8 year old boy loves anything Ghostbusters including your ECTO 1. Your daughter will love it too. Anyone who picks at the inaccurate build is bored with their life. Thank you for the updates, it's real cool of you to invite us in on your journey.

Have you seen the people that build ecto’s out of crappy sedans? Your car is fantastic, and even if it’s inaccurate to the original movie, it’s damn near exact to an equally awesome fan film, not to mention it’s got a great story behind it. If I saw this thing out and about, the LAST thing I’d do was nitpick over some details. Keep up the great work that you do

I know people complain about the inaccuracies for your Ecto, but honestly, I think it looks great. The thing to take into account, for different franchises outside of the Ghistbusters in New York would have different vehicles that would be available to them (much like the original Ecto). So, if anything, you've made an Ecto for a Georgia franchise. I've seen an Ecto made with a Dodge Magnum, as well as other vehicles. Yours is unique to you, and that is why it's awesome. :D

From u.k. Don’t be so tough on yourself! You seem like a grounded down to earth bloke that done his best. Bloody difficult to replicate stuff, tools, tricks of the trade etc. I’m 66 now loved watching the movie with my two lads when they were young. I will send them this clip, I love anything about U.S. autos I was lucky enough to work in a Cadillac engine plant here in u.k. for ten yrs. Enjoyed it. Take care

doesn't matter if it's inaccurate still looks beautiful

I just want to see you cruising around town putting smiles on peoples faces. the car is amazing.

I’m happy with mine with all its imperfections, your car is fantastic looking and I’m sure it brings a lot of joy to people who see it. Good work man!

*Screen accurate or not, that car is beautiful.*

It’s a great looking car. Other than the headlights I would have never noticed any of the other inaccuracies.

It's from a FRANCHISEE. Remember Venkman saying in the first Movie "The franchise rights alone will make us rich beyond our wildest dreams." It doesn't need to be an ECTO 1. I would give it it's own ECTO Number. I even have one picked out, and No... You Can't Have It.

Hey, look the good side. You have an Ecto-1 with al the system, even the front lights. This is better than others

Actually I just bought a 1965 Cadillac Ambulance/Hearse myself, so I applaud your effort! I've had many conversations with classic cars enthusiasts and yes, the '59 Meteor Miller is all but impossible to find, especially with the Afterlife movie hype. Still, I look forward to my project (and it has a spotlight installed!). Hey, we make it work and it brings a lot of happiness to those who see it rolling down the street!

Hey man don't beat ur self up, it's a great looking ecto 1 we all wish we had one just like yours to admire every day, don't let jealousy stop u from enjoying and showing off ur ecto

you built this project to please yourself not anybody else! your workmanship and creativity speak for itself!! I'm sure your daughter wont be able to wipe the smile off her face when you take her for a drive!

I know some will always nitpick and want screen accuracy perfection, but I’m of the belief that as long as I can look at something (in this case the Ecto-1) and say “hey it’s blah blah blah from blah blah blah, then good enough. Considering yours is homemade I call it awesome!

Awesome video and congratulations on an awesome replica. Much like a cosplay Proton Pack have fun with it, make it unique, that's the fun part!!!

Dude, your car rocks. It's got the fan spirit. You and your Dad did a great job with it, and it sounds like you're still working hard on it. Keep it up. I'd love to know if you're ever down in ATL with it.

If it isn't right next to the screen used car, 99.987% of people won't care. It looks great!

It’s cool that you went and did this vid to show the inaccuracies and stuff but I think the ppl that pull up just to nit pic that stuff are just jealous that they ain’t got a fly ride like yours lol

Ghostbusters fan: good man great job, I enjoyed every min

I know that everything about that car is bugging you sometimes, but lemme tall you, IT LOOKS FRIKIN AWSOME. My dream has been to make a ghostbusters e to mobile with my dad for a long time. And I think that’s truly special that you were able to build that with your dad at the age of 16. Best luck to you, and keep on making some awesome memories.

All I see, Is a gorgeous childhood dream made into reality. "Come on, let's burn some red lights!"

love the video. it's hard to get screen-accurate stuff to make homemade props, in general, and when other fans buy them all up. we all have to deal with what we can get our hands-on, and most of the time most people won't know the difference.

hey, at least you have a cool one of a kind vehicle that folks will turn their heads and point. In life, not all things can be exactly perfect- I'd be happy just owning a hubcap. This is your Ecto vehicle and you can make it any way you want it.

Just saw afterlife you still did pretty good on this car R.I.P Harold Ramis

Considering you built this car when you were a kid, you did a great job. Better than anything I built when I was14! Looking forward to seeing videos of your other Ecto build.

I think you did an amazing job with what you had to work with. All the stuff you had to substitute was necessary because it is so hard to find it now let alone in 2003. Nice job

Super well done, be proud that you did it from that time.👍

Well done! It's your Ecto 1! Not much people can say they have an Ecto!

You all did a great job, don’t beat yourself up!

Its still a super cool fan built Ecto.

Very interesting. Thanks for posting this. Have a nice day now.

I would LOVE to have a car like this.

This is awesome! Very nice replica of a childhood icon!

First thing wrong:EVERYTHING!

Frickn awesome man. I bet your daughter loved it whenever she took her first ride. You did great!

It’s ghostbusters day we all ready to watch this beautiful new film

This car is awesome!! Most of what you pointed out 95% of even the most diehard ghostbusters fans wouldn’t know what in accurate.

I think the car looks fantastic! you used what you could get to make it look like Ecto-1 and did a great job. Now that you have the 1960 M&M Ambulance you have a second chance to make it even closer to the original.

As long as it stops people randomly, wanting to take pictures with it and making random people smile then you did good , honestly, it's neat to see different renditions of individuals Ecto1's 🤘🤘🤘🙂🙂🙂🤘🤘🤘 I love when people think outside of the box and make their own Ecto1 or Ecto vehicle of some kind in one way or another even if it isn't screen accurate etc etc can turn any vehicle into a Ghostbusters vehicle of some kind 🙂🙂 hope you're not beating yourself up too much over this. You did good the work shows , dont lose sleep over it , make it how you want to make it 🙂 and put your own spin to it , individuality is just as awesome as a screen accurate movie Prop, but it is wicked cool when a movie inspired Prop has the artist's/prop maker's individual signature personality into it too 🙂🙂🙂

You've got an ecto 1! That's more than a lot of the so called experts have. It made me smile and I bet it's made thousands of other people do the same. The rivet counters can stick there options where the sun don't shine

I love the car brother!! Ya it’s not the most accurate. And normally I love to see hearses look stock like they did from factory. But I really like yours!! You guys did an amazing job I bet it puts smiles on so many faces when you drive it around!!

If it makes you happy, great! There are a TON of people who would love your replica. Be proud man, you said it makes SO many people happy when they see it. That's what it's all about.

Thanks for showing off your Ecto-1

Hey it doesn’t have to be super accurate, it looks great, instantly recognizable, would be proud to drive it

Don’t listen to trolls! Your Ecto is fine! You made it your own! People are just jealous that you have an Ecto and they don’t. I wish I had one even close to what you have it would be nice!

Dude, you and your dad did a fantastic job. Be proud!

I was looking at a 64 miller meteor Cadillac when I was in high school. It had a rusted out floor and fenders, and the fins were just about rusted through. I’m glad I have the 74 Oldsmobile ambulance I have now, but some part of me wishes I bought that 64 caddy. It would’ve made a fine ectomobile. Good luck with yours 🤘🏼

Everything wrong with this ECTO-1.. But do the haters even have one? I think it’s as perfect as any I’ve seen. Amazing job!

I absolutely love it!

Imagine Ghostbusters became a franchise - a Ghostbuster in every large town. That way all the Ecto mobiles could be different vehicles.

It looks great. I hate when people are obsessed with screen accuracy. It doesn't matter. What matters are the memories with you built with your dad.

I think it looks great bro!!

I think you did a great job, and I gotta point out, you did this on your own, with your own money, unlike the movie which had multi millionaire producers, and Hollywood studios, backing the build of the original Ecto-1, so you have nothing to apologize for, Period.. Great job !! Peace

I think it is fantastic

Love the car Clint. Wish I had one even if it isn't screen accurate 😁

Bro as someone who's a fan your car is still gorgeous, idk how inaccurate yours is, it's a wonderful car, and if your minis happy then even more awesome and amazing

All an all it a nice car, you and your dad did a great job with what you had.

just saw afterlife. your gonna love it. the last act broke me.

You still got a dream car bro

Nobody cares if is the wrong year. I know the 1959 is impossible to find. But you did such a good job on it. I bet you see smiling face and cameras where ever go. Hell I'm smiling now looking at it.

I actually love it, definitely something I would drive to and from school 😂

Cut yourself a ton of slack man. It is simply awesome just as it is. Way better than all the naysayers would actually have done if they attempted. Keep it running and drive it with pride. That is a lot of work and creativity. I'm jealous!

I see it as a good mix of the original Ecto 1, Ecto 1-A, and the one from the 2016 Ghostbusters

Enjoying your content

Hey, it looks great!

Don't let people bother you buddy. Enjoy you car it's amazing and I would kill to have have it. Be proud of it I would be 👍

Tbh it looks really sick, it's the ecto 1c now 😂

I think the car is spectacular!

If you love it, there’s nothing wrong with it. It’s perfect.

Hey it looks better than one my buddy built about that same time frame... Of course his was a demo derby car, LOL made out of a Ford LTD wagon if I remember right, with big red plywood fins attached and a yellow strobe on the roof and a hand-painted very well done Ghostbusters no ghost on the side of the doors... Wish I had pictures of it from back then actually came out better than we were hoping for a demo derby car... He entered it in the best of show competition before the demo derby... I don't think it won, but it should have!

Haters gonna hate. This car looks lovely. We are fans we have our own vision. Man to me you did an incredible. It makes the Real Ghostbusters car come to life. So you did awesome who cares. They didn’t put the effort in to it like you guys did. A fan boy like me would love to drive this thing.

Hi, see it as your "Ecto" and not the Ecto1 from the movie. I transfomed a old german Ford Transit Ambulace into my "Ectovan" work is still in progress but I get many happy faces when I drive around. It is a very cool car you got with your own Story.

custom ecto cars are about making it your own bro, its great! I had one fro my wedding car and it was a hybrid of the first and second movie cars with the orange and black stripes but the logo was the original. Also it was a 1960 sentinel cadillac i think? it worked. Yours is awesome

Even if it doesn’t look accurate it be hard to get one that looks perfect like you said there’s not many of these cars in existence anymore but it’s a nice looking car

Dude. You and ypur Dad have absolutely NOTHING to be ashamed of. AT ALL! Maybe a few things you could change such as decal size, the blue paint.... this or that, but overall? This thing would be MINT in ANY prop producers book. Do you know WHY they used what they used when they made the original? Because that's what they could GET! Don't beat yourself up over it. Also, TOTALLY dig the vertical double headlights, VERY uncommon and way cooler in my personal humble opinion. ANYthing can be a Ghost Busters car from an astro minivan to the Enterprise starship and all it takes is a little imagination. To those out there that don't have one? They need to get a life. And tell them if they are SO worried about it, then THEY can go out and spend $100 grand on a 59 caddy AMBULANCE built by Miller Meteor. I don't know exactly who built your coach but at LEAST you were able to find one that had FOUR seats! A LOT of them only had the SINGLE bench seat up front! Be proud of what you have accomplished and enjoy YOUR day!

Barrow County is close to where I live! I live in Gilmer County GA!

lets break it down is it 100 percent accurate maybe not but the thing about the ecto is its always made to look different from the shape to the all round look we dont always need to make a perfect replica of it as long as your happy with it and we can tell that some if not all effort went into building it

Lol, people pointing out all the inaccuracies cracks me up. The amount of time, money, and effort just to get something SIMILAR to the ecto-1 is insane

This is amazing! I do think your being a bit hard on yourself. You did the best with what was available during the time.

So What , you have an awesome Ecto

There's only one thing wrong with that Ecto-1. It's not sitting in my driveway. But really though... beautiful vehicle. I've always though of Ghostbusters as a makeshift group. They're always tinkering and adjusting things. That's why having something built by your own hand, even with slight differences, makes it special and more true to Ghostbusters. Those little differences are what make it your own.

I love this video! Change the WRONG on your thumbnail to I KNOW! 😎 I had a 1973 Ford LTD that I painted up like the Bluesmobile since I couldn't find a cheap Monaco. For the majority people liked it but on occasion people ripped on it good. I had a 90s era pushbar, it's a bigger car in general, I had a CD player, dual Cherry Bombs, it was tough but definitely not accurate. I got comfortable defending myself though, it was after all MY CAR

Welp…. I don’t have an Ecto at all, so I will just keep looking at yours longingly…

Don't worry, you have a better ecto-1 than the one in the 2016 movie and look at that they invested millions of dollars in the movie and got a very bad vehicle! You've really done a great job and that vehicle is still a dream come true. reality for many children today! Cheers

It looks awesome regardless! Is there any news on the 60 Cadillac though?

I love it

looks great, if it makes you happy then that's all that matters...enjoy your car and happy ghost busting
