Kenner The Real Ghostbusters Ecto-1 Interior Door Panel Insert

thingiverse

As part of a project to bring some screen accurate details to the Kenner The Real Ghostbusters Ecto-1, I've created this door insert which adds an interior door panel, and makes it easier to add a black interior color without masking. It took a long time to get the curvature and measurements right, especially the indention of the ghostbusters logo on the inside of the door panel, but I'm happy with the fit and finish. The insert should pressure fit in the door, use glue to attach the inside panel. I split these so they both have a flat print surface. There are separate files for the driver's and passenger side I used the Eaglemoss Ecto-1 as reference for the inside panel, and resized it to fit the Kenner dimensions. I'm currently using a PLA printer, so I haven't added door handles, arms rests, or window cranks YET. Once I upgrade to a resin printer, I'll add those details. As it is, the detail was a bit small for PLA, resulting in a few minor printing issues. Resin should yield better results. I've also included a material render and photos of my finished print for painting reference, and the measurements I took if you want to make any changes yourself. For painting, I printed with black PLA, used a silver paint pen for the chrome strips, and used a 4 mm piece of gloss photo paper cut to size and glued in to add the white section. Overall, a nice addition to your Kenner Ecto-1, hope you enjoy!
