Ecto-1 better than BA's Van?
Well the only way to truly get your point across, is to build it!

I want to see all my Koolwheelz models built,
but its also fun to see how you augment and modifiy the models.

I concede that they are simplified, and sometimes lack a lot of detail
but this is a by-product of trying to keep the part count down and the construction simple.
This can be just as challenging as designing a more complicated model.

The Ecto-1 was challenging for many reasons...
one being the upper body and how it all connects at the rear.
Making it boxy, simplified and easy to build, was a difficult task.

Another challenge was the Roof Rack and its Accessories.
Much of the stuff up there is very small to deal with on a Koolwheelz level.
And I don't have the room (on one sheet) for too many parts.

I know some may not like the box simulation I created for the roof
...so...
lets see what you can do with it?

or not.
Build it as is.
As Shia LaBoeuf said Just build one!
