    I just took out the axle and wheel assembly then notched the underside of the chassis. Once everything is done on mine I'll just glue the axle on.

    Once you have it all apart you will see it's just held in place by three tabs. I just used some nail clippers and cut one and it popped right out.

    Whoa some pretty cool looking Models here...I haven't had any models done in many years...I had Tons before from Planes, Cars & Ships that my cousin and I completed and made a mistake of letting in a younger cousin into the room...In 5 mins while our back was turned all our models were broken over 20 planes and 15 cars and 6 ships were dismantled on the shelf lol. My Favorite was the b17 flying fortress....took us a week to complete.
