I understand the answer to this question can vary wildly. It has always been my dream to own a '59 ambulance / hearse of some sort and convert it into an Ecto 1. I know there are many different models from that year.
Let's say I can find one that isn't completely rusted out, but isn't running. Probably needs a few years of TLC to get it running, but the body is all there as well as trim and accessories?
What can I expect to pay for that? $4,000? $7,000? Over 10? What have some of you paid (if you don't mind me asking, of course) to buy into this amazing club?
I know this is a vague question for a very unique car. I have spent the last week googling for recent auctions of the last few years, and the price jumps from $5,000 to $55,000. I figured I would ask those who would have the best advice on the subject.
