Taking apart a 1/18 Burago Viper???

[Jon Mopar]

I would like to disassemble a 1/18 Burago Dodge Viper RT/10, but have no clue how to. I've tried, but it doesn't seem easy. Has anyone taken done this before?? Would love some tips

if it were a 1/24 Burago Viper, it would be a piece of cake. I used to put together those 1/24 metal kits years ago

Looks like 6 screws on the bottom to separate the frame from the body. Take those out and inspect the rest carefully. Shouldn't be too hard after that.

that's what I first though, but where the windshield snaps to the firewall area, it's not going so well. It's like they tied it in a knot lol

The old tried and true method, throw it at the wall and the hood comes off....a few more throws and that should remove the doors and trunk. For the body, might take a few more with feeling, but I think that will help you dismantle it.

I really do hope this was of some assitance....

I might try that.....

It's actually pretty easy, all snap fit, just take it easy and keep prying.

Personally, I prefer the screws like in the 1:24's. Snap fit, for a bull like me, means unsnap it = break it! Just my history, even when I'm careful. I'm also not allowed in any shops or departments that sell crystal or fine dining dinnerwear.
