Sayers and Schoville is top of the line VB. I looooove this thing. CW approved

The limousine is a series 75. Hearses and ambulances are series 86. Sideloading pro-cars with suicide doors only open from the inside. Exterior door handles are decorative only, they do not work. A side-loading hearse would not be used as a ambulance. A 1960 S&S limousine-style sideloader is a very rare pro-car. I've never seen one before. Very nice!

I love those old battlewagons. OK imagine that thing done in satin black with a red and black leather interior. That thing would be righteous.

Any true Ghostbusters fan would know that's not the exact body style of the original Ecto-1, but it's close enough to fool most.

have you ever made or thought about making the pre ecto version that we see when ray first pulls up in the car?

This would be perfect for the Afterlife vehicle. That rear door opening outwards would allow that side turret seat to come out. That would be awesome.

Robert C. Mosely is credited as "Concert Goer" in the 2016 production of Ghostbusters on IMDB. Pretty cool, Bob!

LOL saw the title and Bob hit the comedy gold again. :P

17:00 Make a mold of the fenders, bumpers, everything that will soon become unattainable!

"Everybody can relax.. I found the car. Needs some suspension work and shocks. Brakes, brake pads and lining. Steering box, transmission, rear end.."

Great find, Bob

S&S was Sayers and Scovill... founded in 1876 as the Sayers and Scovill Company by William Sayers and A. R. Scovill.

U got some awesome projects lined up! I can't wait to see them! Keep that camera rolling plz!!

got excited and then i saw the tail fins. still very cool but not a 59

Starter fluid guy needs a re-train

Very nicely put together video and very entertaining as well. Thanks for posting this.

1960 S&S Park Row! Very nice

Relax, Bob, it just needs some suspension work.... and shocks, and uh, brakes, brake pads, linings, steering box, transmission, rear end, maybe new rings, also mufflers, a little wiring.

Awesome job video bob!!! Keep up the good work I laughed my ass off on this video

There’s no way that Jason Reitman wanted that car that is so cool 😎

I cannot wait to see what you do with this one!!!

Yeah, Bob, get those 59 rear fenders on. That would be awesome! But if not, whatever you do with it, I'm behind you 100%! Can't wait to see it all finished.

Nice Beavis reference there bob...oh I noticed that car has suicide doors..SWEET

You should have started to video with "it's ok guys I've found the car!...."

That kitty! How sweet...

making the Molds is a great idea in the Marine Indistry they still have a couple of Molds they still use from the 1970s that they used to produce a couple of IconicMotor Yachts those Molds exchanged Company hands and actually were rescued from behind a shop that did permanently shut down

Man I love this thing the way it sits it'd awesome. It's soooo looong

Some of these were combos, hearse and ambulance, used in smaller towns usually. Also early 60s you started seeing other colors on hearses in my area a local funeral home was known for their pink 61 Buick hearse in Sacramento CA.

You could do this one like ecto when ray first buys it. It’s almost there already but then u could have a before and after version

Love the idea of doing the afterlife ecto. I wish I could buy it and give it the love that a caring owner should give something like that. I know I could maintain it but buying/restoring it is a while other kettle of fish.

Awesome Video

This is so cool and great and good this is the ECTO1

I saw this at copart I thought of you sadly I forgot to send you the link it’s crazy how you end it up buying it 👌🏻

60 s&s park hill or park row. Used to daily a 60 s&s Victoria. Cool car...kept watching. It weighs 5750 roughly. Mine weighed 5900 and change with me in it. Heater core isn't hooked up probably because the little rubber seal under the 3 bolts on the core is leaking. There's gonna be more edits to this comment lol

Cool trailer ❤❤

This is the first time l have watched your chanel l remember you hsd a show on the Discovery chanel with Foxtel and now you are on you tube looking foward to the Ecto 1 project l remember one of the the back to the future DeLorean

OH YEAH!! a afterlife version would be sick

Happy birthday brother

Were I the only one catching the Se7en reference? Laughed out loud! xD

Absolutely love the car

The side door offers a lot more respect to the deceased. I'm like...Let me get out of my last ride like I'm going to a primer not like some teenager sneaking into the drive-in.

Wow! It's too... Good! 😍✌🏼

Man that thing would make a hell of a hot rod!

That is so Awesome

19:52 I thought I had read they used the Ecto-1A that was rotting away at the Universal Florida backlot for Afterlife?

Ecto is a 59 Miller meteor..but it'd look great rebuilt

I'm sad about your plans for this car... Just bring it back to life as a rat hearse.

Funeral Director here, would love for you to build for sale (to me or others) a restored Miller Meteor or Sawyers Scovell 1960ish so that could be placed back "into service". Is this something you would consider or think about? I know prop making is vastly different from restoration work, but I know some makers that like cross over or do both.

You know Bob I think I would take the time to make some molds and convert the back end, because you're not the only one making echoes, and Not only would you be able to get that car looking more correct, but you could sell new fiberglass reproduction quarters heck you could even mold the rear bumper, to other people building ectoes or you could use them on your Ecto projects of the future, I think it would be worth your time. You realize only the passenger side is suicided on afterlife but that's a cool car for sure! Definitely hope to follow this project!👻

Love the beavis and butthead reference... Fire! Fire!

Nice one Bob! I saw this pop up on Ebay a week or two ago. I said to myself 15K for a decent 1960 S&S this thing is gone. Then ebay sent me a sold notification like 2 hours later. I'll take it that was you. Good catch! Can't wait to see what you do with it. Afterlife Ecto with a gunner seat?

I'm just dying to go to the SAM SHOW arts and crafts at the Merrell Center in Katy? Who was that for?

Funny you complained about the humidity down there in texas. Up here in oklahoma I work in a shop with no airflow and the humidity had been so high even early in the morning I am soaked in sweat. Made a trip down to austin and same Antonio 2 weekends ago and I thought it was so nice because it wasn't humid. Probably up by dallas though it is close enough to oklahoma to be humid too.

wow, this will take a lot of work just to get it functional, good luck.

It’s in better condition than my 3/4 made miller meteor eaglemoss ecto 1 model as it stands now lol 😂

Don't let anybody tell you the factory Carter carb is junk....keep it sir, oh and the single resevoir master cylinder with those massive 16 inch ish finned brake drums and huge brake shoes stops these cars on a dime, when they are working properly, if you need the special almost nonexistent 3 jaw puller to get the rear splined drum off of the axle shaft let me know, I have it, took 4 years to find it when it finally came up for sale on ebay.

I am always amazed how to find these cars.

I'm looking for a Ecto-1

You should do a series of this being transformed

The hydraulic pump for the hydraulic setup is early at least after aircraft that hydraulic stuff is worth a lot to a hydraulic collector especially in a lowrider community you can get a nice penny for that setup at least just for the pump and the leverer

Hey Bob if I was to have that car there I would have kept it just the way that it was and clear-coated it I love the old patina

Any chance you could bring Airwolf back....?

You should make fiberglass molds of the whole car and not just the break light trim, so everyone can have an ecto 1. Some of the new spray chrome looks good on fiberglass as far as bumpers. Last year at SEMA talked with a builder that was 3d printing trim and could not tell. Side and back glass could be polycarbonate, might be some better options now days. Could have a mold made for the front glass. 2x6 rect tube frame rails, ford 9”, mustang 2 front with an LS or a thousand other suspension options.

I’m sure someone has already said, that was a straight hearse. A combo would have had attendant seat on the passenger side like my ‘70 Superior.

BOB....I drive an SL benz..with a stereo that dont make your ears bleed..its soo damn loud it makes your eyes bleed....a land rover v8 with super charger and 500 horse power and a certain very vintage 74 porsche....but..when you make the ghost busters car..Id drive that for sure....LOL...for sure

No chance of it being restored, and not a stupid fake Ghost Busters car ? Would look cool restored stock.

It's a Sayers and Scoville, but you probably already know that. Also what happened to the 59 Miller-Meteor since the move? 10:08 I see it has level-o-matic (which is the red thing underneath the dashboard) which I think was used to keep the casket level when driving over uneven roads I think

I think that you should do a six inch chop on the roof, wide wheel arches and side pipes, full sun roof and purple paint job

I'm no car expert but if you make a mould out of the back panels you could always resell them make more money that way Bob

Rare car that should be restored not ratted out. Oh well, what the fuck do I know, right?

The level matic will be to drop the car on one side or the other to assist in loading a coffin

Hey! You can’t park that here!!

What was the most amount of projects you had going on at once?

2 Ashtrays upfront Yesssssss different times

The company that made the leveling system is named Superior. They used them well into the 1970's. Early versions like yours were an engineering nightmare. There should be a button somewhere under the dash that turns the leveling pump on. It's usually tucked up under the dash near the leveling control. The button was prone to failure and many were replaced with a switch which could be hidden anywhere. The leveling control itself often failed too. Newer ones were improved. The hydraulic system uses 20W oil if my memory serves me. I will be surprised if you can get it working again. It was over complicated for what it did and often leaked oil or jammed or quit working all together. You can probably make something yourself that works much better and is less complicated or take one out of a newer hearse and use it instead. Those air conditioning units were awesome. Wear warm underwear if you're sitting in front of the vents.

Does anyone know when videobob appears in the 2016 Ghostbusters movie? I don't want to watch the whole thing... :)

I have seen on Facebook there are places that make those rear quarter panels out of new sheet metal

Hearses come in white.

Suicide doors... Afterlife Ecto-1? ;)

Take this trip to a cap off and clean the contactor and points

Wow, looks really rough. Lots of hours in that one.

Mike Finnegan from motortrend might have a Lamborghini kit car yellow one for sale bob

@videobob submarina or sea-dweller?

I watched a feller take the chassis and firewall of a 65 Galaxie and turn it into a period correct race car. So yeah. Your Miller Meteor is a perfect car for what you are doing with it. I am guessing your PTO on your Rusto 1 will be mid chassis working off a gear reduction unit behind the transmission. It will have its own drive shaft from the engine through the Trans. . You might see access to it under the casket platform through the access panel. That part is purely a guess. Even so I would search mid chassis for that piece of the puzzle

Cats are awesome.

You Should Make The 59 Into Ecto-1, And Then Make The 60 Into Ecto-1A

Fiberglass panels? Is that safe?

You was in the ghostbusters 2016 movie? 😳 Ive watched it and i dont think i saw you, which scene was it?

That old turbo hydramatic needs the kick down linkage hooked up for it . Leave the factory Carter carburetor on it just rebuild it , it's perfect for that 390 ,new afb's suck man don't put an Edelbrock on it.EDIT ugh, someone already put an edelbrock on it, the trans will never shift right without that proper carter carb on it..unless you rig up the linkage on the edelbrock. National Carburetor in Florida probably has the original carb for it.

WE WANT 1A!!!

Fantasize

So this was recent dam

Wrong year for an ecto. This is a 1960. Ecto was a 59. Still a beautiful coach ❤️ 💙

Beavis and Butt-Head reference...Reference from the movie SeVen..all within the first 9 minutes. This is guy is funny. Subbed.

Ghostbusters ghostbusters

leave that car as a sixty and do your own custom

Want me to come over and help ya out with it Bob? I know these hearses like the back of my ass, owned 12 of them and my 61 S & S Victoria is 512 Big Block Cadillac TH/400 swapped. Met ya at Wal Mart on Sunset that day.

Twin Weber carbs

Haha air conditioners blow. Haha Get it?

An awesome one to do would be awesome is a wraith car. You have that lambo kit car and could make it from that.
