Ghostbusters Pre-Ecto-1 PAC3 Cadillac Hearse

Description
So modeling a vehicle in gmod is a pain in the ass as is when you want a specific vehicle model in game. While some go the extra mile to port it from 3D sites others take to PAC3 Editor to make them. Ecto-1 is a vehicle Gmod sorely lacks, as there is the General Lee, BTTF DeLorean, a KITT car, A-Team van and maybe others. But Ecto-1 hasn't been among them.

I've personally built 3 incarnations of the car in gmod, 2 of which are on the Lone Wolf Cadillac Eldorado convertible. However, after roughly a week's worth of work in PAC3 I successfully made the currently most accurate 1959 Cadilac Miller Meteor Hearse. Being as close as possible to the real thing, that uses in game or workshop based resources.

Vehicle:
Pre-Ecto-1 Hearse

Controls:
O - Driver Side Window
P - Passenger Side Window
N - Rear Door
Numpad 0 - Headlights

Current State:
Because of how the Cadillac vehicle itself has so many curves I had to do extensive body work to make it as natural as possible. The result is can mostly be seen in the rear roof were parts are sticking inside the vehicle and lighting can sometimes be glitched. PAC3 has 3 files. Base, Body, Details.

Base: Comprises all of the vehicle models, clips and bones used to make the extended/clipped body of the vehicle.
Body: Entire prop body of the car. Parts are divided into two categories: Body and Roof. Roof comprises of all parts of the roof itself. Body is, well, the body that has parts labled as D## for any parts on the Driver Side and P## for Passenger Side. Parts with (Letter)(number) a,b,c, etc. are areas with multiple parts made to complete a larger part. (This is mostly seen in the windows)
Doors: Currently only comprises the rear door itself and the power windows.

Needed Changes:
Windows edited to not have tint, roof lights of original ambulance. Overall color is flat black with debug-white painted black, might need to lower shade to a dark gray. Area near rear bumper and tail fins do have a clipped gap that because of the vehicle model is very hard to fill in.

Coffin not included.

Should be in Dupes and Subscribed, just look for the thumbnail pic of this page. If not I recommend trying to resubscribing and seeing if it works. Workshop dupes have a tendency of doing that.

Ecto-1A would be my final vehicle. Since 1b is just 1 with caution strips and a big roof trap it would be easier to build 1A from that.
