Building the Ecto 1 from the Ghostbusters movie. Hosted on FotkiHosted on FotkiI started building it out of 2 Alloy forms 59 Cadillac. Hosted on FotkiThen I cut both of them to make 1 into a 4 door wagon body. Hosted on FotkiFound out that the rear 1/4 panels were still to long. So I had to cut the 1/4's shorter, I cut from the rear wheel well to the back of the rear door. Hosted on FotkiNow the body length is sitting right. I dont have a roof for it yet. But I know witch car I need to get the roof from. The 53 Cadillac hearse. More pics to come.

That's an ambitious project!
What method do you use to cut the pot metal bodies? Razor saw?
