Tumbler75 Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 (edited) Well this is something you don't find everyday. I got this car, a resin hearse, and a casket off Ebay many years back. Well I'm not that big a fan of Ghostbusters, but have owned 2 1:1 Hearses in my life. So what do you do with a retired hearse that's been retired again? I turned mine into a Spookster! I lowered the car down 3 scale inches, threw on some 18's from the Black Force Slammer Kit, Opened the rear door for the casket, and handmade a vinyl top. Painted the interior Blood Red and the exterior Satin Black. Enjoy!

fordh8r Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Love these old Hearses. Something about them just makes them too cool. I love the flames on this and the vinyl top is a good touch too! The stance looks good with those wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tumbler75 Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 Thanx guys! The comments are most welcomed. When it came to building this car I noticed a bunch of people building them "Stock" like they were ready for service. I didn't want to follow the crowd so I did it like I would have done a 1:1. Glad ya like, and thanx again for the comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedimastergary Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) Nice build looks killer love the casket and the wheels are great on it nice detail. I have had a idea to build a 1:1 Hearse some day with a casket speaker box, custom interior in blood red, big V8, custom wheels and flat black paint with ghost skulls. Got the idea when i was in high school and a friend ask me to help him come up with some ideas for a hearse he was given think it was a 1963. Just needs a skeleton beside it as a driver Edited April 1, 2010 by jedimastergary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzTom Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 That's pretty wild, with flames. I guess that's the hearse used to make deliveries to the crematory AzTom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tumbler75 Posted April 18, 2010 Author Share Posted April 18, 2010 G1Grim13, If you can track down an Ecto 1 Ghostbusters car (Ebay is a good source and sometimes Hobby Shops) it's not real hard to convert it to a Hearse, only hiccup is they are curbside only. If you want to go differently (like I plan in the future) get a 59 Caddy Convertible or Hardtop and do some hackin' here and there to combine the two frames and make it a full detail. Hope this helps. Thanx for the comments everyone! Yeah this is the car "Death" himself would deliver you to the Underworld, Flames and ALL!!
