A friend of mine dropped of a box of old ghostbusters toys and in the box was two fujifilm ectos. So I made a pre ecto out of one of them! The curtains are made of a old white tshirt with black sharpie for the folds. I found a cop car that has the correct lights for the roof once it comes in I’ll have more pics ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/3/9/39e12dceb1dc981613d5dded2b152307a336386a.jpeg)[/URL] ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/d/1/d1d41373c0cbe35f951607cc45d2d69678319d0a.jpeg)[/URL] ---

The curtains are made from an old white tshirt. I used a fine point sharpie to add the ruffle details. ---

This 1966 gto has the lights for my ecto. Guy on eBay wants 25 bucks for it but it’s all I’ve found for police cars with the correct lights. So unless some one else knows where to find them in 1/64 scale let me know! ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/9/2/920fbf4e68cc17e1226db9bd988e2ee41842e808.jpeg)[/URL] ---

> [@Jake LeRoy](#): > > Thanks slays! I’m no captcyan when it comes to painting but I think it turned out alright! Nobody paints like captcyan…not even me. 😄 Save your $25 bucks, I’ve got some old 3mm Red Round Top LEDs that should be close to the size of a Bubblegum Light for your Pre-Ecto. All you would need is to paint the Chrome Trim on them. ---

Haha! Your paint skills amaze me capt! That would be great as I can’t justify spending 25 bucks just for the three plastic roof lights. Now all I would need to find is the little lights that are on ether side o the gumball light. Been thinkin about making those as well. I might have some 3mm LEDs layin around though so save yours capt! But thanks for the idea Im surprised I didn’t think of that! ---

Small update! Used a 3mm led for the gumball light, thanks for the idea capt! 🙂 ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/4/9/493cceb2960d3494fc9b422cf4e70e943974f793.jpeg)[/URL] ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/7/1/712e5b1b4f1fda8f1ce58208e8708dd57d395828.jpeg)[/URL] ---

Small update! So I took a clear car fuse and made the [whelen](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/ectomobile/whelen) edge bar for my other fuji ecto. I might cut it down some as its to long but I think it came out ok other than the picture being to dark to really make out the green and blue paint. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/4/c/4ce8a78662389c15e4884e125c39f293db60bee8.jpeg)[/URL]
