I doodled this up real quick this afternoon while it was fresh... It's only about 4" x 6" big... I'll never get around to even trying this one but it's cool enough (I think) that someone sure should! Here's what it'd take to make... A Ghostbusters Ecto 1 or a Johan Roarin' Rambulance (or both as the Ghostbuster has no engine at all) And maybe a Silhouette transporter, plus of course, a Dragula. If you gut away the rear esction of the Hearse chassis and replace it with the floor from the Silhouette transporter, plus the front wheel drive section of the Roarin Rambulance (Or a Hurst Hairy Olds... Lots of options.) Open up the rear doors big enough for the Dragula fit inside... Paint it black. Now you have a Hot Rod Hearse transporting a Coffin based Dragster. How cool would that be?

Now you have given me an idea. I just tried and the Johan hearse is too short (the Dragula hits the front seat) but I have a couple of Ecto 1's ;D I will see what I can do ;D

I think the Ecto 1 will provide the most space, but a Rambulance could be streched a bit... And who sez it has to be A "Dragula"? It could be more of a "Dragula Clone" with a little shorter frame and exhaust stacks, and a narrower wheel track so it fits inside better.

Ok I see this as a GRAET concept!! But, as I am a poor boy, I look for economizing way sto do something. The Ecto is fairly easy to find at a fair price often, so the base kits covered. But that Dragula, well, some cant get em. {'spensive} NOW,I was recently rummaging around the ol crypt recently and found two of the coffins from the Vampire van. THAT got the little bean rollin round the basket to doing one a mud bogger and the other a small slingshot . Now This gets posted!! Set up properly Id imagine a narrow sling may fit! Now if I can wrangle a Ecto........

Love the idea. Putting the Dragula inside the Ghostbusters Ecto 1 will be tough.

just splice two Ecto kits so you have a six door hearse, it'd be pretty much bang on! I'd take out some of the space between the coffin and the grill on the Dragula too ;D

NOOOOOOOOOO don`t cut the front outta the dragula then you defeat the whole purpose combine 2 ecto-1 kits front wheel drive the ecto with carrier type pocket axles at the rear fro the ecto that way you can drop the floor abit to let the dragula fit easier . You wanna keep the ECTO`s lines not turn it into a humpback whale OH! and put purple fringy curtains in the ECTO too! And if you needed to go with a motor cut a hole in the hood and add the Munster Coach intake and stacks on a plastic plate glued in from unnerneath Damn! wish I had a Dragula now I already have a buiilt ECTO-1 by AMT

Joe Demicola turned the Munsters Koach into a hauler for the Dragula last year....
