Charlotte NC – University City – Great Vehicle Graphics!

Car decals and vehicle wraps are not simply for eager advertisers who are looking to offer brands more drive time mileage. Over time, they have shown up within a few of the most popular television series and films. We have put together three iconic cars here, all along with some special vehicle graphic uses, and even more awesome backstories.

Jurassic Park Jeep

That telltale red strip that is painted on this Jeep Wrangler is not merely a fancy design touch. It’ll keep Triceratops from running after the vehicle. Film buffs are going to recognize the Jeep photographed as model 18, the vehicle where Sattler, Grant and Malcolm all get their original taste of Dinosaurs early in the movie, in conjunction with the path to the helipad inside Jurassic Park: The Game.

Jeep 12 included a modified edition and carried Dennis Nedry as he transported stolen embryos from dinosaurs to Miles Chadwick on the East Dock. Later, it got a re-construct for its Universal Studios Island of Adventure spot. The studio more than likely utilized custom vinyl decals that applied the Jurassic Park logo to their cars.

The Mystery Machine

Scooby-doo, Shaggy, and all the crime-solving gang once piled into in The Mystery Machine, a really psychedelic-looking van wrap that had a flower power theme — and chase monsters, ghosts, or additional supernatural, menacing creatures. The original version of the Mystery Machine is thought to be a modified Chevrolet Greenbrier from 1965.

Ghostbuster’s Ecto1

“Who you gonna call?” Well, of course, Ghostbusters, the parapsychology professor crew who after losing their jobs at the university branched out all on their own, removing and trapping ghosts from spooky haunted houses. The ghostbusting machine within the comedy movie was a limo-style Cadillac Miller-Meteor endloader known as the Ecto-1.

The team, in Ghostbusters 2, chooses to give the car a boost with up-to-date vehicle graphics, and addition of an electric sign.  Also, the Ecto-1 and 1a used reflective vinyl decals similar to additional emergency vehicles.
