More engine goodness, they should just do a partwork of 'power plants of the world' nicely done Wayne

I like the little details that make the engine look more realistic.

Such a pleasure to watch your videos ! You’re a cool guy Wayne ;-)

It is in fact a Generator. that is a water pump, not a timing belt cover. It's a Cam in block push-rod engine at 390 CI/ 6.4L

Generators were used up to the 60s/70s and were replaced by alternators. Not sure all the technical mumbo jumbo about it but alternators were better at low RPM and more reliable.

That's where I'm up to now, impatiently waiting on the next lot!! I've picked out some of the detail in bronze just to break up the black and blue.

This engines starting to look impressive . Nice work.

Looking pretty awesome now Wayne.

Hello Wayne, great video mate, it is very detailed isn't it, the large boxes on the sides of the engine can't remember what they are called, but I used to make thousands of them when I used to be a Die-Caster, they were a good job to work, also a great live stream last night, Lee.

Got my email today at 9:30 saying my 7-10 had been posted......at 10:30 I had received it 🤦🏼‍♂️😂 Love the vids, always watch before I start on my own.

blimey there is a lot of detail in this engine build of the Ecto-01

I'm thinking that that last open screw hole is for the power steeing pump bracket. I think that my deliveries will be a month behind you, so, it's good timing. I get to learn from your example beforehand.

US cars changed to an alternator in 1965.

Excellent video and that engine is looking awesome

Another great video. When I saw your notification of "cancelled" I thought they'd cancelled the Ecto1!! O.O

I always start my screwin slowly.

Just seen that the MCM Comic-Con Birmingham has also been cancelled for safety reasons as well. But better safe than sorry for all concerned.

A great show looking awesome hey 🏆🏆🏆

I dont know if you have came across it, but there is a UK listing on Ebay for 1/8 scale Ecto 1 decal set that has a bunch of OE factory under hood decals. Im going to be ordering one myself for the generator tag decal and the condenser terminal ring on the generator.

Please find below the email I have received today regarding the changes to the build for anyone interested. Hi Simon, I have heard back from Eaglemoss regarding your enquiry about the build. I have been informed that the air filter in the engine has been updated to better replicate the engine that the Ectomobile would have had. There are no LEDs for the fog lights as these were not used in the film. In terms of electrical functions, the Ecto has: - Working headlights and rear lights - Brake lights operated by the brake pedal - Siren - Horn - Engine sounds - Hood beacons - Rotating lights on front and rear - Interior light that comes on when the doors open This was answered by their inhouse expert, I hope it helps! They did not inform me of any further changes to the model so as far as I am aware there won't be any more surprises. If you need anything else please let me know. Kind regards, Anabel

Do you think you will paint any of the Engine parts? As I couldn't resist.

I'm like

Just received an email this morning saying that they are debiting my account in 2 days for the first of two specials. For the proton packs and trap. What the hell is this. I didn't sign up for specials. Never mind the 2 day notice. Got to say am not pleased with this development. Will definitely be ringing them when they open tomorrow, as I'm still to receive a reply from an email sent over a week ago.

Looks great. Can u ask your contacts when it wil be in the Netherlands?

Hola Quisiera saber si hay alguna manera de recibir esa colección a México! Buenos videos! Éxito!

Your terminator issue 55 is a little late maybe

👍😻

Wow holy lack of detail color Batman. You’d think for what we builders pay these companies(which some companies actually do the extra) could use a bit of paint so we have a little less custom work to do
