Hey there, a guy on Chihuahua (Mexico) is selling a '58 Cadillac and he would like a GB fan to buy it and turn it out into a nice [Ecto-1](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/uncategorized/ecto-1).

Info about the seller:

Name: Remedios Garcia

Location: Chihuahua, CHIH (Mexico)

Status of the car: Running

Price: $5000 USD

The owner is willing to drive it to US territory. Interested people please contact him via e-mail: [mello\_garcia@hotmail.com](mailto:mello_garcia@hotmail.com)

Serious buyers only. Thanks!!

IMPORTANT: I’m not selling this car, the owner (a non-GB fan) came to me cause he knows I run the mexican Ghostbusters community and asked me for help to sell it.

This would be a great addition to the ‘Procars for Sale’ thread that is stickied at the top of this section…

Sorry, I didn´t see that thread. I asked AJ where to put this and he suggested me this section.

If a moderator asks me to remove this, I´ll do it and will post it at that thread later.

Before I get another report about the post. I am absolutely fine with this being posted here without needing to meet seller requirements. It isn’t different than someone posting about a pro-car for sale they found on eBay or Autotrader. Just be diligent when dealing, and make sure you meet in person to avoid getting ripped off.

Wow, that’s only 5 hours away from me. Insanely tempting but the wife has expressly forbidden me from getting any hearses in the near future. ☹

I’m sure this is blasphemy, but I would cruise that sucker AS-IS. They only made the 58 Chevy / Caddy body style for one year. That’s a rare beast right there.

It would indeed make a great Ecto, but it is also just as cool as a 58’ ambulance / hearse combo.

I was thinking the same thing. It would be a great conversion, but it would be also awesome to restore it and drive it like that.

Well, the seller didn’t told me about it. Good to know, thanks for sharing!
