"Outer Limits" ambulance

Great shots of, what I think is, a 1957 or 1958 Miller-Meteor in this old episode of "Outer Limits". This clip is from the first season (1964) titled Specimen:Unknown. The ambulance is shown in the first couple minutes of the clip and has some good interior shots. Correct me on the year/make.

I remember that one. watched a lot of si fi. the top lights are the give away with the one shot of the windsheld. no bullitt lights on the fins. it's a 60 MM
but it really give you the ida of what it was like to haul 4 in one of them.
 
the real answer is

The white ambulance in the clip is an M-M. We all agree on that. Now for more info. The small 'arrow' or 'feather' above front door vent window is an M-M item. The hub caps with the square emblem are from 61. The 62 Cadillac hub cap emblem was a long thin design. The piece of finned trim just above the front bumper is the exact same trim that is on my 61 M-M. The lower skeg or body fin was used on the 61 and 62 Cadillacs. From this I would have to say this is a 61 M-M. I have seen pictures of cars with the squared tunnel lights. Likewise I have seen pictures with the round tunnel lights and also Ful-Views. Maybe the lights were a what was ordered thing or what was on hand when M-M built the coach. We can ask that question at the next M-M reunion in Sept '09.

Thanks for the year correction. That's what I get for trying to see at 3 AM w/o glasses after working a 20 hr stint (that plus being upper end of baby boomers) LOL
 
3am without glasses

Joe,
If I didn't own a 61 I might not have gotten it right at 3am either. I remember the 20 hour days. I don't do that any more. Now the glasses part I would have no excuse...my wife is an optician. One of her many jobs.
I liked the hanging cots in the clip. My coach is a combination but does not have the hanging cot feature.
