If there’s something strange in your neighborhood… this wagon’s already warming up the siren.
This isn’t a 1959 Cadillac hearse — it’s a modern-era spin on a cinematic legend. Built on a 1994 Chevrolet Caprice Wagon, this Ecto-1 tribute captures the unmistakable Ghostbusters spirit while delivering a unique Chevy-based platform that’s easier to live with and maintain. More than $37,000 has gone into transforming this wagon into a show-ready crowd magnet, complete with authentic graphics, flashing light bars, and all the visual drama fans expect.
Power comes from a rebuilt 5.7-liter V8 showing approximately 6,000 miles since completion, while the body reflects 205,000 miles of service. A new transmission, along with major supporting components such as the radiator, computer, fuel system parts, and cooling upgrades, makes this a surprisingly dependable cruiser for parades, conventions, and fan events. Supporting documentation is included for many of the larger jobs performed.
The electrical system is a show all its own, with roughly $8,000 invested to support a dual-battery setup and a fully choreographed 40-minute light and siren sequence. From the custom roof rack bristling with strobes and beacons to the glowing interior and underbody lighting, this wagon commands attention wherever it goes.
It’s not without quirks — the rear windows need track attention, and the headliner is partial due to the extensive roof-mounted lighting — but honesty is part of the charm. This build was designed to be seen, heard, and enjoyed, not tucked away in a garage.
Whether you’re a lifelong Ghostbusters fan, a convention organizer, or someone who simply wants the most unforgettable cruiser at Cars & Coffee, this “Ecto-Caprice” delivers nostalgia, personality, and pure fun.
Just remember: Don’t cross the streams.
