    A fanatic has painstakingly created a fully working replica of the Ghostbusters’ car. Loren Baldwin spent two years searching for parts and six months piecing together his very own Ecto-1. He recently visited New York City - taking the car back to its beloved headquarters at Hook and Ladder 8. It cost Loren $20,000 to convert the 1959 Miller-Meteor chassis into the famous movie car - but without the help of fabrication businesses he estimates he would have spent more than $100,000.

    Wow. It was meant to be. He gave up looking for it because he spent so long looking and thought it was impossible to find and acquire. And he was looking for another car, and it pretty much just finds HIM. What an amazing love story. *wipes away tear*

    Loren did what Ray did and added the 5 panel mirrors, smart move. During the bust montage in Ghostbusters II, you can see that Ray had put one in, although it appears that the regular adjustable RV Mirror had been removed from the vehicle. While it isn't accurate to original Ecto-1, it is accurate to the revamped one in the second movie.
