The Panoramic is the hardest one of the '59's to find in my opinion. there are only 3 or 4 known in existence currently. There's Darryl's coach, one overseas (rumored), one in this Youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q44tP1hfceQ and obviously it'll probably never see the light of day again, and one other one Darryl found in a junkyard laying on it's side. The "Panoramic" title is because of the much larger than normal rearmost windows. I had quite a bit of trouble tracking down this coaches' "official" name after Darryl shared pictures with me... I knew i'd seen only ONE ever in that Youtube video and the odd window configuration got my interest going... and after ALOT of research & digging finally found his answer.

Wayne you can scratch the extra car found, the one in the youtube video is the one overseas. So I guess thats only three to found including mine.
As for all the PM's concerning pictures, I will be taking a ton of pictures this afternoon and possibly post another more detailed video of the car.
PM's concerning price, as stated earlier in this thread I will be taking offers. Kinda like a silent auction of this car. This car is somewhat priceless and everyone should have thier due chance at getting it.
FYI FOR ALL... If you even have the thought in your head of chopping this car up for a ECTO you will not even get a reply from me or have the chance at a purchase.

I'd cry like a child if I saw that car being chopped into an Ecto.
I wish I had the money to protect it myself!!

Exactly, Hey I wouldn't mind having a well done Ecto to throw in a parade or cruise in for fun, but in no way, at the expense of ruining something like this rare hauler! I think the expense and lack of knowledge in that area is why you see so many Ecto attempts around, partially done or built on a model that has been altered (or attempted to alter) to achieve the look! I'll be glad to see this one safe........... If I only had the funds right now!!!!
Originally posted by SuperSnake View PostI think it's safe to say this car won't fall into the hands of someone who wants to make an Ecto out of it (even if they say they have other intentions). Most people that want to make one don't realize the cost of A) buying a Miller and B) making it anywhere near screen accurate.

I already spoke to Neonwerkz a while ago and he said he didn't want it chopped, and I totally respect that.
If I do manage to get myself a 1959 Futura then you can be assured I will not only spend whatever is required to get a full restoration done, but when I Ecto it up I will make sure it's as reversible as possible so it can be taken back to stock with very little work.
