Suit up for classic comedy! Peter Venkman (Bill Murray), Ray Stantz (Dan Aykroyd), Egon Spengler (Harold Ramis) and Winston Zeddemore (Ernie Hudson) take a chance on going freelance, de-haunting houses in a new ghost removal service. As soon as they open their doors, their first order of business becomes saving beautiful cellist Dana Barrett (Sigourney Weaver) and nerdy Louis Tully (Rick Moranis), who’ve inadvertently opened the gates of hell… right in their own apartment building!

The funny thing, something eerily similar to that happened to me as a kid. Not with Dan Ackroyd at the wheel, but close enough. It was 1998 and I visited the Universal Studios Florida with my father, I was 5 years old. It was already pretty late with it getting darker and we wandered far off the populated areas in search of a toilet. So when we finally found one and my father went in, I was waiting outside in the eerily empty road. When all of a sudden Ecto-1 came charging around the corner all sirens blaring and rushed past me. 5 years old me was completely stunned and of course my father didn't believe me when he came back. Oddly enough, it is about the only thing I can still remember about that trip...

When I was a kid there was a guy that had one of the original Batman movie cars from the Tim Burton movie. He dressed up as Batman and would drive around sporadically. I thought it was the real batman, everything was movie original including his costume. Every time I saw it I lost my shit.

My favorite moment driving a big rig was when I saw the BTTF Delorean pass me on I5 in California followed by the Ecto-1. I tapped the air and signaled to light it up. He lit it up and gave the sirens too. I hold that as dear to my heart as getting to see ghostbusters 2 in a drive in. The very last show before they closed.

They mean nothing to the studios that own them....until they need them again. The time machine Delorians were in just as bad shape until they were restored, some by collectors, some by the studio. One sat rotting in Universal Studios for years with zero maintenance. Now reproductions are in the parks. The backlot at Disney-MGM Studios in Florida had the full size Snowspeeder from Empire Strikes Back sitting out there until it fell apart completely. I worked there in 1989 and got photos with it before it died.

To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? He that has ears to hear, let him hear. Are you saved? Where will you go when you die? Heaven or hell? The Gospel, which means the Good News is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. The one God is a trinity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Son came and laid down his own life to save ours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him. Although God's creation was created perfect, having no death, sickness and disease, the creation became corrupted through Adam and Eve in them disobeying God. In this rebellion the creation became fallen through the curse of sin and mankind became separated from God. This world is fallen, but God offers reconciliation to him through his provision at the cross. Ultimately God will restore his creation to perfection when he returns but those that who reject his offer of redemption will remain condemned by their sins and go to hell. John 1:1,14 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. [14] And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us, 1 John 3:8 KJV He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and THE WORLD KNEW HIM NOT.

Ecto 1 just oozes happiness and friendliness because of all these smooth shapes that vintage cars had. And the tail-fins are also adding to its retro-futuristic appeal. It really looks like a representative ride with style while being a purpose-car and not just any other standard vehicle. Just perfect for the Ghostbusters.

The stereo installation department in a store where I used to work had a replica (built on a similar Cadillac) in the installation department. It was so big, the technicians had to park it diagonally to get it in the building. It took over the whole shop until they were finished. I wish I'd had my camera.

Damn man, the pictures of ecto-1 before they refurbish it just hit me in my heart. Such a sad sight, knowing that car pretty much sat dormant for decades. Ecto-1 and the delorean from back to the Future are two of the most iconic cars from movies to me.

I'm not a huge fan of ghostbusters by any means but I remember hearing from a friend in the US who actually worked at the place it was stored at for all those years what a sorry state she was in and I know how big those films were and I didn't believe him... Right up until he emailed me about 5 pictures of 1 and 1A and when I saw what had become of them both honestly cried my heart out, they are such a beautiful pare of historic cars and to see them like that as a petrolhead it really cut me deep and when I first saw how e1 war restored i cried again because she, both of them really, deserve to be preserved for future generations. Because I truly believe that of all the cars in Hollywood, Those two are simply the most beautiful out there. And watching this will always bring a smile to my face

I remember when I worked at Sony and one of the Ecto-1s was rotting on the lot next to a bunch of other cars. At one point, they had to move it by pushing it. Even if it wasn't in a movie, a '59 Cadillac, especially a professional car conversion, would be really valuable.

Took my son to a video game/toy/comic show. Ecto-1 and the BTTF Delorean were there. He and I just stood there and stared at them, in awe. Hard to tell who was more excited, probably me as I have over 3 decades of love for them, but it was defiantly comparable. Sharing that moment with him, well I’ll never forget it. They are just movie props, yet they instill so many feelings in us.

It must be like seeing a really old friend... Ghostbusters was released not long after I was born and I LOVED it as a kid. Still do as an adult.. First time I saw ECTO I was like "THAT IS SO FREAKING AWESOME!" and her siren is so unique! After seeing the trailer - I really feel that it's going to be amazing! If they make more movies I only ask that they don't get rid of ECTO-1 and keep her as original as possible. ECTO-1 is one of the main characters of the Ghostbusters!

I've been devouring my Haynes Ecto-mobile manual after watching Afterlife to do that version of the car and this video shows things I hadn't noticed before. The window tint for instance, I did not know the side windows had tint. The Afterlife version has the driver's side window tint ripped open wider except for a skinny strip top and bottom. So they really maintained the authentic providence of the car.

Just finding this video, as I was looking to add a 1/6 Ecto-1 to my collection. I was 18 and just joined the Military when the original movie came out. I was in the audio/visual field and after training ended daily, i would work at the base theater as the film projectionist (technical term for the guy who loaded each reel as the movie progressed, GB had 6-8 as i remember) and Ghost Busters (in 1984) was the first film i worked. I would sit in the projection room hour after hour and night after night and it never got old watching the movie. It stayed in the base theater for many weeks. Glad to see the car got restored and glad to see a glimpse of Harold. Thanks for sharing!

That car and that cast was a big part of my childhood. It showed me what was possible and could be possible for my future. I went into computer repair in 1992. I was only 13 at that time and I learned a lot. That car I study every part of it when I was younger and forgot everything mostly about it when I was older. But the impression of that car still up to this day I think about it. Now I see it being restored 3 years old feel like today it was being restored. Great Job restoring the car.

Is it wrong that I choked up when Dan saw it unveiled.? It is a piece of my youth! Not long after this movie was out I joined the military and went to perpetual war in the middle east for decades. This equates to that feeling I had as a young teen with popcorn and a girl by my side........before the evil and Cynical nature of Humanity took that away. Good stuff. It makes it all worthwhile in the end, strange how something so basic can take you to a time of good, and bring that feeling that washes over you. Thanks for this!
