Sweet Dan! I wish I had better inside pics but I did not have good luck finding them. Did that car happen to be up here in Phoenix/ Paradise Valley just a week or so ago? My buddy at work rides a bike to work and has been going nuts looking for it since he saw it. He was hoping I could get reference pictures. That add of your buddies had one picture which gave me ideas but it was kinda dark and looked like there were subs on both sides of the car that faced upside down. It didn't look right.
Thanks for all the comments guys. Here is a small update. 7/23/2010. It was really busy at work this week so I didn't get a lot done but she made it home in good shape this time. I have the light bars mocked up but the rest of the roof rack is assembled and awaiting detailed painting. i just thought about something. The idea of switching to the Ecto-1 from the first movie is more than likely to late. This has the roof mounted tabs I would have had to get rid of before paint for the electronic boards. Oh well I'll just detail this one. I actually will be looking for 2 more of these kits in the future for the first car and another movie form of the car. I also found pictures of a real one for sale here in AZ for reference. Without further aduo...
Everything was perfect on this one buddy! The color combo, the frame, interior, and the open grille was fantastic. You'll have to show me those sanding sticks you speak of. I voted for you too
I love to see more guys tackling stuff that most people give up on. Makes ME look less crazy I think some Evergreen and Bondo will fix the cowl area. Hands down the worst part of this car is the $5 tag on it Good luck I'm watching
Thats exactly what I'm hoping for. I hope Evilone has the stuff. I'm doing the rack and I want to make them inter changable. I can't stand the ghost having the 2 either. I will detail this one but it's not getting glued to the car
Here is a small update. I am fortunate to be able to work on my cars at work when it's slow after my daily stuff is done. Therefore moving stuff from home to work is challenging. It's monsoon season here and I thought the car was dry so I put in a plastic bag to seperate it from the parts spue. This in fact ruined the roof paint. It left almost camo looking patterns in it so I sanded it and re-painted it. The good news is it looks better! It is very clean and bright and shiny. I have not even cleared yet or anything. I started the roof rack and I am watching the movie more and more. GhostBusters ( 1 ) shows a black interior so thats what I'm going with. I think it will help the details pop out. Here is a mock and no I am not using the tires/ wheels here. It's all I had at work. More to come! and Enjoy. Thanks for all the feedback guys I appreciate it
Nice! I actually know where a real Pontiac Grand Am limited edition model is for sale but not advertised. I think it has a 6.6 in it. Looks great so far.
Romell I just took the time to catch up after my last post about your windows. Amazing as everyone has said. I do hope you make it out here like our conversation but please let me know every catagory you may be in so I can build for the others As a novice modeler getting into detailing more and more I really look up to you and some of the other greats on here. I can't wait to see more!
