I have a question. I'm attempting my first custom on a 1/18 American Muscle NASCAR diecast and I'm having issues with removing the body from the chassis. I have the 5 screws out and I'm able to start getting the front separated but the back won't budge. Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Brian

As I recall with those, the dashboard is mounted to the body while the steering shaft is mounted to the chassis. I don’t know if that’s what’s holding the back, but it is a little gotcha when disassembling those.

Thanks, I'll try messing around with that!
