ECTO-1 replica roof equipment is mounted on a Ghostbusters-style Cadillac Miller-Meteor ambulance conversion in 2008. The roof rack carries prop devices, a blue light bar, auxiliary blue lamps, cabling, and warning-style hardware modeled after the movie vehicle. ECTO-1 is the converted ambulance used by the Ghostbusters characters in the film franchise, and replicas commonly reproduce its specialized roof apparatus.

The rear compartment of an ECTO-1 Ghostbusters replica vehicle is open at an outdoor display, with a stretcher and prop equipment installed inside. The car is styled after the 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor ambulance used as the Ectomobile in the Ghostbusters films. Roof hoses, blue lamps, and electronic boxes recreate the fictional ghost-catching apparatus associated with the movie vehicle.

ECTO-1 began life as a 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor, built on Cadillac's commercial chassis and originally sold as a combination ambulance-hearse. For the 1984 film "Ghostbusters," production designer John DeCuir Jr. and car customizer Stephan Dane converted the car into the team's proton-pack-loaded ghost-hunting rig, adding the rear-mounted equipment console, roof-mounted sensors, and the now-familiar red-and-white paint scheme. The rear compartment housed the fictional Ghost Trap mechanism and a bank of switches and gauges meant to power the team's containment gear. Universal Studios and private collectors have since built and restored several ECTO-1 replicas for films, conventions, and museum displays, keeping the Miller-Meteor's boxy 1959 body style in circulation decades after Cadillac discontinued it.
