In the Jdraft, it was to be a blue and white 1975 Cadillac Full Formal Excelsior Ambulance bought for only $600 but by the time the Septemdraft was written, the price had escalated to $1400 for an even older 1959 model, "very long, gold 1959 Cadillac ambulance." During filming, inflation increased the cost to $4800. In previous drafts of the first movie, Ecto-1 was originally different models.Dan Aykroyd drove the Ecto-1 in New York.After one to two days of finishing touches, Ecto-1 was ready for filming. They were on top of each other or faced in a different direction. Some parts on the roof rack changed position from the design. Dane originally drew the Proton Packs to lay sideways on Ecto-1's gurney but the prop makes changed that so the packs were upright at a slight angle. The finished Ecto-1 wasn't an exact duplicate of Dane's designs. Once it was done, it was shipped to New York where it was attached to Ecto-1. O By the time it shipped on October 19, the ambulance was about half-done. The prop makers also repaired the ambulance to driving condition, cleaned the interior, and installed equipment. After about two weeks, the paint job and details were blocked out. Dane oversaw construction and directed them on building the car based off his designs. O After Reitman approved Dane's design, studio painters and prop makers at The Burbank Studios Mill went to work on paint and detailing. Dane spent the longest amount of time in his gig working on the Ecto-1 design. Dane drew up isometrics of Ecto-1 and its roof rack and various views and elevations of the exterior and interior. He took reference photos and measurements then went home. He visited the primary ambulance in the backlot at The Burbank Studios. On October 5, 1983, Dane started working on Ecto-1.Stephen Dane, credited as a Hardware Consultant, was the fabricator of the original Ectomobile.
