Do you need to add some details, lighting or passengers to your Walthers cars? Keith Turley from The Original Whistle Stop in Pasadena, CA gives a little YouTube demo on how to perform the “twist” method for removing roofs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cr2A-QrqiPc&feature=youtu.be

Yep,

Saw this posted on the Atlas Rescue forum. The vids on removing the roofs on Walthers single level classic cars and the disassembly of the new Santa Fe “Hi-Level” cars are well made.

An excellent video. When first told how to do this, I thought that I’d totally wreck the roof and never have it ever fit properly again. Quite scary doing this for the first time. Glad that this will make others feel at ease in doing so.

What a life saver. I’ve gotten frustrated trying to take the tops off. Thank you for the info.
