Go to the local auto parts store and dig in the trash cans outside. Look for some used windshield wipers so you can make some simple fenders.

I did some paint detail to try and make it seem more real. It was looking like a box.     Sent from your moms house. |

Finished the air tank for the ECTO-1. Yes, the ECTO-1 had two air tanks, mine will have one big one. Oh well. Also painted the spare.   Sent from your moms house. |

There it is, my take on the ECTO-1. All that is left is to have Rolandrockshop wire the lights. I also have to install the new motor/esc. This was a fun build, but it was a tuff build. I appreciate the "likes" and "comments". It's nice to have support from those in the know. I hope the build represents more than "a rebodied" SCX. I put a lot of work into it and it has been in the back of my head for a while. I'm excited to see it under its own power with the lights flashing.                  Sent from your moms house. |

I need to record it on my phone and play it when I drive it. I thought about getting one of those cards you can record a message on, record the horn and then you could press it when you wanted it. | |

I will say, this is a good body. Seems really thick/heavy. I've hacked and drilled the shit out of it and it's still solid. I've considered getting another one, painting it black and running the hell out of it on some 1.9's. Sent from your moms house. | |
