Paint scuffed, missing parts, wonky wheels. No way will it pass the NCT. Here's an example. Ouch!!<br />First thing to do is drill out the rivets underneath, six in total. Be careful, you only want to drill the rivets and not the body work. Then the car should pop apart. Make sure to keep an eye out as tiny parts tend to fly about. You then have to drill 3 more small spots of weld holding in the canopy section. This also holds in place the rockets tubes and antenna. Then you can really inspect all the parts.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6800925070363108851-9184515719919878490?l=thebatmobileproject.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Shanenoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800925070363108851.post-47181299570119184402009-08-30T18:41:00.000-07:002009-08-30T18:43:13.908-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_fVyzUlUeSLg/SpsqmvNR_zI/AAAAAAAAAz4/oUKHebmt0MA/s1600-h/smallbatphone.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 259px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_fVyzUlUeSLg/SpsqmvNR_zI/AAAAAAAAAz4/oUKHebmt0MA/s320/smallbatphone.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375937425192386354" border="0" /></a><br />A taste of things to come.
