The dates here are about 4 years old. Anybody here? I'm fixing to retire in August and plan on building And re-building models. Need a good place to get help on issues as I go. First one is a Johan 1962 Dodge Dart. The whole frame and chassic is one piece. Want to separate and rebuild. Will need help in tp re-build

Welcome to the world of retiree modelers!

I retired two years ago and since have acquired enough builds/rebuilds to last me  a year of full-time work.  Just don't get busier than when you were working.

This forum is a great place for advise and help.  As I remember, the '62 Darts had a unitized body/chassis.  Are you looking to separate the drive train from the chassis plate? 

For more exposure, post this message in the On the Workbench section.

Thank you! I'll try over there. The pictures are of the Dodge, as it is now. Yes. want to separate frame and rear end and front end, which doesn't exsist. Real exhaust , etc. Plan on being on here a lot after retirement

Welcome to the group, Terry! You'll like it here - lots of good info and some fun! I share your love of the 62 Dart. I rebuilt an old Jo-Han dart 2 years ago. Made it into a base model sedan street racer with a 413, slicks, and roll bar.
