5. The Mystery Machine (Scooby-Doo)
In the summer of 2002, Lou and Steve Raguse painted an old van into a replica of the Scooby-Doo Mystery Machine. Raguse’s paint job was so realistic that they decided to paint two more vans to sell.
4. Batmobile (Batman)
One of the Batmobiles from the sixties television series was sold for $233,000. After the series zoomed to popularity, the producers of the show commissioned a number of replicas for promotional use. This is Batmobile number six, and one of the functional models.
3. Ecto-1 (Ghostbusters)
This is the 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor ambulance limo that was transformed by Universal Studios into the Ecto-1 Ghostbusters car.
But actually, the cartoon was inspired by the movie “Ghostbusters” created in 1984. Thanks to Jayson for the tip!
2. Turtle Van (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)
The Ninja Turtles Van (or Party Wagon, as it is sometimes referred to) is what the A-Team van would look like if it made sweet love to a tortoise. Fully equipped with a wide range of weapons and defense mechanisms, this is a transformed News Ch 6 mobile. Some hardcore fans have constructed their own Turtle vans, like the man of the picture above.
1. Mater (Cars)
Many people have seen the films made by Pixar, especially the movie “Cars”. These are cartoon characters of course, and yet, if we look at EP Industries run by the great Eddie Paul, he can transform these cartoon cars into real vehicles. So that means, you will see Mater the tow truck, Sally Carrera the Porsche 911 and the Lightning McQueen, which is the Pontiac Trans Am, all converted into the real thing!

Hi, My name is Brian and I'd like to speak with you about your blog, please email me at your earliest convenience.
That 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor ambulance limo, received little tweaks and mods, just as it would be if a real Ecto-1 exists. This would still be same vehicle the Ghostbusters would use for sure, because it was cool and reliable at the time it was released.

It’s pretty rare to catch sight of the GhostBusters' car nowadays. When you talk about cartoon cars, the first cars you think about are the Flintstones’ car, the Batmobile, and the Mystery Machine. It's good that the GhostBusters' car is still on the list. :)
