Well the plate says "ECTO-1" so probably not.

I am LOVING this version of the car!
The more I see it, I am as well. I wonder if the extended stripes were Trevor's idea? Reminds me of racing stripes on a sports car

Also no new clamshell on this one... hmmm
I believe the clamshell is fully open, meaning we wouldn’t see it extending above the rack

The sass! XD
There’ll be a name to differentiate, even if it’s just the movie title as a prefix.

Eg. Didn’t “wreckto” (which didn’t catch on so much) come from official channels for Afterlife… I couldve sworn it was on Jason’s insta or something.

Anyhoo this is all very exciting, getting hyped.

I'm surprised they're still using the 1980s license plates. Those things are older than I am; figured they'd be rusted and beat into oblivion by now...

Would the gunner seat even be street legal in NYC? I suppose since the Ecto-1 is sitting next to an NYPD cruiser, we can assume so?

Ofcourse the gunner seat is not legal.
Heck, a siren and those lights aren't even legal to be used by anyone.
Also, I think the cops simply put fingers in their ears when the unlicensed nuclear accelerators where brought up.

Peck is going to have field day when he finds out.

Stills from an instagram video....They've majorly simplified the gunner seat mount.

Looks like the hydraulic scissor arm is not installed in this car - and it has been replaced with a simple square tubing mount and arm. Seat is different, also.

I wonder if it's for for filming/stunt purposes or story purposes?

Seeing as they used the previous iteration for stunt driving, I can't imagine why it's different unless it was too problematic.

Winston probably renewed the old registration. Then he could keep the 84' plates.

WCat2000 wrote: June 4th, 2023, 3:24 am What exactly should we not rely on Dan about? This is not the same as reporting a GB3 when nothing was officially happening. James Acaster's character? This movie is currently being made and Dan is in it.
In the Chris Moyles Show, Dan closed on when this movie comes out, at the 28:53 mark, "Either end of the year or spring, not sure, you know, it’ll be depending upon music and mixing and all the things that have to be done. I’m excited about it because I see what we’re getting, and there’s some wonderful sequences and great comedy. Good scares and great comedy." This is the first we heard of a possible delay to Spring 2024. But what Derek was alluding to was Dan had also been cheerleading a GB3 movie since the early 90s and in his interviews he would always say GB3 is greenlit for so-and-so to film. So it's a bit of the boy who cried wolf. Here's some examples: February 18, 2009, Aykroyd stated the script was still being worked on and that they "hope to be in production by late fall 2009". On September 23, 2010, Dan Aykroyd said they hope to be in business in Spring (2011). On August 25, 2011, during an interview with Dennis Miller Radio, Dan Aykroyd stated he hopes to go into production in Spring (2012). On April 23, 2013, Dan Aykroyd revealed half of the screenplay is be completed very soon. Aykroyd thinks the movie should be in production by the fall and be shooting by the new year. On July 21, 2014, on the Today show, Dan Aykroyd commented the movie is looking to be in pre-production in spring 2015. So in all honestly, we should take this recent comment of 'or spring 2024' with a lump of salt and be skeptical until Sony officially issues a press release on a new date.
Don’t mean to interrupt the car discussion. I know all that. Derek said let’s not get our hopes up but a delay would be a bad thing. I mean that’s not something we’d get our hopes up for. That wording doesn’t make sense. I agree Dan could be wrong about a delay though.

Well, mystery solved. I think we know what the Metlife rehearsal stunts were for.

And Winston got the gunner seat fixed up to look newer, makes sense.

Thank you, I'll keep looking for that rear shot.

EDIT: So for a charity drive, Rudd sold three $53,000 bids for a chance to come to the premiere, eat hot dogs with Finn, and have some of his costumes from the movie.
