    Trying to remove the shell on some shorter Arnold passenger cars. This is the type with the metal chassis and plastic shell. Thanks, Jim

    A photo, showing disassembled Arnold passenger car.
    Very simple process.
    In photo, front to rear:

    Truck crews
    Trucks
    Frame/weight
    Window insert
    Body

    Remove the 2 screws holding trucks.
    Remove trucks. Turn over, weight/frame should just fall out.
    If not, a very light tap should help.
    May have to bump body on hard surface to get windows out.
    Assemble in reverse order.
