This past weekend, Houston-based Mecum Auctions hosted a car auction which included a replica of Ecto-1A from Ghostbusters II.

The replica, which was previously listed for auction back in 2010, features a V8 engine, replica Proton Packs and traps, a Slimer sculpture and an appropriate array of emergency lights matching those on the original car from the 1989 film. And if the car seems familiar, it's because it's the replica assembled by fan Dean N, which usually appears in Google's image results for "Ecto-1A".

Listed with a starting price of $50,000-$70,000, the car sold eventually sold for $220,000.
