Finally got around to remaking the classic ambulance 6680, brought to you self-mockingly/moccingly as Bego 6680x. Just made it in time to make it into an imaginary 40th anniversary set. Used a lot of the original parts, except for elements such as the special chassis/fender plates, the wheels, and the slightly off-color window panels. Instead played around with a more dynamic color scheme using slopes (never mind the gap...). The van is a Chevy-inspired one, coincidentially resembling a 1981 Chevrolet G20 -- 1981 being the year in which this classic Lego set had been released. The van was partly inspired by this bricked version:

However, I believe in smaller-diameter wheels and playability (front doors opening, back door opening, two-minifig-side-by-side-seating) as well as independence from stickers. Really like how the color scheme turned out, integrating the printed panels from the original set, as well as the realistically short front overhang and the front bumper. Background picture was scanned from the original instruction sheet, including some scotch tape on the sides.
