Elvira in her car, lovingly referred to as the Macabre Mobile, is a 1959 T-Bird hard top which was purchased for $2,500, then went through over $7,000 in alterations by George Barris & his team to make it look how it does in the film… barbed wire mirror, skull cap stick shift, chain link steering wheel and snow leopard interior. Cassandra Peterson owns the vehicle to this day & still uses it to attend Elvira events.
In 2016, for the History Channel show Counting Cars, Danny Koker and his team transformed the interior and exterior of the black 1959 Thunderbird Macabre Mobile. They added the leopard print upholstery and the coffin trunk along with a new paint job.
The car is on display in Danny Koker's car collection in Las Vegas.
