On the bottom of each truck is a cover-plate held in with small clips. If thecover-plate is carefully removed you will see small tabs holding the sideframes in. Move the tabs and the sideframes are easily removed. They can now be painted or changed. Jeff

Exactly how would one go about doing this?
The plastic is not really glueable, is it?
Or would it be better to make a hard connection such as a small hole drilled in and then a pin inserted to hold it?
Anyone have any experience with this?
You guys are such great modelers that i know the answer is out there among you.
Now if I can only talk you into sharing...[8D]
