building an ecto is up there on my bucket list. i know it's not gonna be perfect but i love this build because it's perfectly imperfect. it makes it so you don't have to worry about every intricate detail but it still looks so awesome

Fan-fu*%€-Tastic when those back fins go on lighting and thunder ⚡️⚡️⚡️will strike in the sky!!!!! I was on north Moore street when they filmed and got some close shots and your definitely in the ballpark with accuracy

Beautiful car mate!

That looks perfect and queens in Chinese .👍👍🏆🏆

i love the front end! im so glad it turned out good!

Just fantastic! Yeah I jumped ahead on the videos but will be going back to the others :D

Looks great! I am so jealous, a childhood dream of mine is to own my own Ecto-1. I love it!

For some reason I don't care what you to do this car, as long as there is content I love watching it.

Thank you!!!

My dream car!! Congratulations having so much fun with it

Its funny how much a coat of paint can revive a car. When I saw that red primer go down I got flashbacks to last week when my boy Trouble got a bit of clean-up just to stop the neighbours turning their noses up. thanks so much for sharing Wreckto's progress, that paint and front end REALLY make it so much closer to completion!

Very well done!

Great job. What a huge improvement in the look. Thanks for sharing.

Looking really really good despite all the fender setbacks etc, its been coming together more quickly lately too

Well that is my dream car right there idc i would become a damn police to put sirens

Great job

Looks awesome

I once painted an entire Chevy Van with a small roller and a 1 inch paint brush , And used Swimming Pool paint ( TAOH ) was the color . It looked great and lasted quite a long time .

YUP!!! I'm still jealous!!!

AYYYYYY, now the back wings

It’s looking amazing can’t wait to see another test drive

Dude, youre getting there!. Looks so much better with the paint.

A improvement for sure!

13:35 me recordó ala ecena de la primera llamada cuando salen a toda marcha te quedó 10/10

It’s always been my dream to have one even as a young kid the ecto 1 was my first favorite car

I saw someone post on the Facebook group that they had purchased some generic chrome trim to replicate the chrome trim, if I remember correctly it was like fifty bucks for six feet. I can’t remember the website they posted, but it can’t be hard to find on google ;)))

wow

Dude, your work is a genuine inspiration and I’m completely blown away by what you’re able to do here, props!

I still prefer the red the way it was in the 1st two films but the ecto-1a is my fav

It turned out really good! Will you be attempting to get the fins to be the same as the Ecto-1s?

3:53 the paint looks to be persian sand? Also you saying that you would like to add another caddy, makes think of the quote "you can never have to many Cadillacs"!

they are making another one? we havent had one since afterlife!

Hey, I’m trying to build a somewhat budget ecto-1 replica from a 1993 ford Taurus wagon right now, do you think you can give me a bit of advice and some pointers? I’m a bit young and still at a point where I know generally what I’m going for, but not quite fully sure how to execute it, already about 15-20% of the way through it though

Of course! My vids aren't the RIVHT way to do any of this but feel free to use it as an intro guide. There's smarter pros in the Facebook ecto 1 groups that know way more than even I do, and there's a group for modern ecto builders like you're looking into!

i don't know what picture you are going off of but in the new film it only has the stripe after Winston gets the ecto-1 back in his arms and the hood looks the same in the film after he get the ecto-1 back could you elaborate on this so i can see what you are going for?
