Oxford Diecast 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor Ambulance 1:87

The Cadillac Miller-Meteor Sentinel Ambulance was a combination ambulance/hearse based on a Cadillac commercial chassis but it is more likely to be remembered for its association as the Ecto-1 drive of the Ghostbusters of American movie fame. 

In real life, its size and length was just right for when doubling up as a hearse – a bit unnerving!  The ambulance featured enormous tail fins, a powerful 6.3L V8i engine and was converted by Miller-Meteor.  It had a high roofline and an opening back/rear loading facility. It is quite a rare beast as very few were made.

For its Oxford debut, the 1:87 scale ambulance is presented in a red and white two-tone scheme with massive tail fins and even a backward facing fin on the roof. There is an extravagant amount of external chrome work as well as white wall tyres. The windows are silvered out and given an additional louvre effect in the rear patient area. The interior is equally opulent with a clinical white floor, red front seats and red dashboard with rear seating moulded silver grey. It is registered in Maryland as AA 00 00.  The tooling modifications on this release incorporate the option of four roof lights and a roof beacon. The future releases promise more alternative styles, perhaps.
