So, most of you may know that Zane (my son) is as big a Ghostbusters fan as I am. What a few of you know is that he is also a big monster truck fan. After getting my hands on a few Ectos I got a crazy idea. What if I made Zane an [Ecto-1](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/uncategorized/ecto-1) monster truck!!!. I didn’t want to make it look exactly like an ecto-1 but make it look more like the monster truck version of one. I lucked out and found a matchbox 63 caddy ambulance. A lil paint, some decals, a roof rack and a new chassis with monster wheels…

And ECTO-XTREME was born.

(also check out the wheel swap on my Ecto-1, I took the ones that were on the Matchbox car. I think it looks better)

I’m not really crazy about monster trucks, but that’s a pretty good job! 🙂

Those wheels do look better than the ones that come with the Hot Wheels Ecto. Awesome! 🆒

Cool custom jobs!

How did you get the cars open? I’m thinking of doing a little custom work myself.
