I'm calling it the Ecto-7. I was going for a somewhat modernized, local franchise look. Not too worried about a 1x1 repro. I've been wanting to make an Ecto since forever. Bought the old police car with that last big check that Biden sent me. I love so much! It's super fun, and I feel like a celebrity everywhere I go. I just wanted to share with you guys. I've gotten an "Ecto-7" license plate but don't have new pics yet. I'm not sure if these links are gonna show up... Maybe I can get some pointers...

This is just in the parking lot of the mall by my house.

This was at a car show sometime in Aug.

You did a really fantastic job! The green lights look totally slick on it, they pair really well with the yellow ones. And that roof rack is excellent - are the hoses on the side held on with magnets?

Thanks! Yeah, the hoses on the window are held on with suction cup hooks, and where they meet the car there's magnets stuffed in those elbows.

are the amber flashing lights rotating or LED simulating rotation?

The amber lights can do, like, 20 different patterns. I have them so they're simulating rotating lights.

You should add this fog bar NiLight 240W equivalent 20" LED Fog light bar.I just recently added it with a Glow-in-Dark silicone plate frame, 23" bumper guard fog light mount/plate mounting bracket, with additional tilting plate bracket. With surprise marking under the plate if anyone attempts to steal it after breaking the thread locked bolts. 😆

Here is my Ecto-7, when I started over a decade ago.
