'The Pittsburgh Ecto-1' in Squirrel Hill Tunnel, Pgh, PA

This is a video of a "The Pittsburgh Ecto-1", a locally modified 1967 Cadillac hearse to resemble the iconic car from the 1984 hit film, Ghostbusters. The owner (who has done extensive custom work on his car) is a personal friend and lives not far from the Greater Pittsburgh area. This is footage I took of him heading back East through the notorious Squirrel Hill Tunnels on the Parkway East (I-376) in Pittsburgh, PA. Ghostbuster fans of all ages should appreciate the look and nostalgic feeling it gives as it cruises through the tunnel, light bars a-flashin'!

To everyone saying its the wrong car... STFU.


this is a beautiful replica. A massive labor of love went into this and I want to shake the hand of the man that made her. She is an absolutely gorgeous machine and she is perfect.

1974 Cadillac. Yes, it's the "wrong car", but it's Pittsburgh's Ecto 1, not New York's. A lot of work and kudos to the person who did this!

Can you imagine the ecto siren in the tunnel? That would be awesome.

He used to do all kind of events and car shows, really nice guy. Always had a full set up when on display. Sad that he sold it. Would of loved to been able to buy it.

Lightning in a bottle, everything in that film was perfect and magical.

imagine casually driving in the highway when the next thing you see is the ecto 1

If that doesn't put a smile on your face....

[GESSO]

Who wouldn't want to drive a car like that?

Oh the memories of that tunnel! Would travel through to get to Monroeville Mall as a teen in the mid and late 90s! The car looked like the real deal! 👍

When your a creative kid and your mom allows you to decorate the car:

That's one way to get away with hittin' the lights on public roads while driving a replica Ecto1... Lucky thing though, there were no cameras or unmarked cop cars in that tunnel... Keep on bustin'!

The ecto-1 is probably one of the most iconic things in ghostbusters

[laverdadbuscador]

As a die hard I appreciate anyone pimping their car out to show some love. Accuracy doesn't apply when it comes to ecto-1.

[rhydenkiefer]

I love Ghostbusters this is a good thing about the ecto-1 it is always around

[katasiapa]

Finally someone call them for ghost issues.

There is another one in Pittsburgh as well. I used to live in the area and saw a different one at the waterfront steak and shake every once in awhile.
