Pic 5 is a top view of the engine, I added a silver ring to the air filter and painted the wing nut on it silver Pic 4 shows the power generator decal and some of the connectors I painted shrome Pic 2 & 3 show the air and oil filter decals in place I also wired the distributor cap to the correct firing sequence which was simply putting the wires on in the correct order. I also picked out a few details such as nuts with a bit of chrome. I may have some in the wrong place but I think they add just a little bit more interest under the hood. I got hold of some scale ecto 1 accurate water slide decals from ebay. I thought the overall look was OK but it seemed to be lacking something. Moving on to my next addition which continues within the engine bay. I was unfortunate enough to need a replacement hood due the the original one arriving with damage, however this enabled me to get the direct comparisson shots.Īwesome work! Love the weathering you added too. I purchased these replacements from .ġst is an image of the supplied vents fitted to the hoodĢnd is the replacement vents available from Mike Laneģrd and 4th is the replacements fitted in place, they simply stick straight on with supplied double sided tape, fitting instructions are includedĥth and 6th is a comparisson between the 2 versions.
The supplied vents don't have the correct amount of louvres and horrible visible screws which doesn't look right. So, first up right off the bat was to replace the vents on the hood in the very 1st pack. I will however drop some shots here and there with overall progress of the build. Hi, thanks for looking in! This is not a build log of my ecto 1 as such, more a list of the modifications I make along the way as I attempt.to make things a bit more accurate or look better than what is supplied.
