Pics: But wait! There’s one more Greenlight ‘70 Ford F-100 XLT

This one is Black and White. It just arrived today.
First of all, I wondered if I would need the hacksaw to remove it from the plinth. I was lucky. One screw was tight but I was able to loosen both screws. Nice little truck that replicates the actual truck though the color scheme is reversed on the only truck I could locate

Removing those screws just takes a bit of muscle! PIC

Yup, Harvey, that would do it. But it might break the mirror off the door.

Always hate when that happens.

But why do they use a torque wrench to mount the vehicle to the plinth in the first place?

So it doesn't loosen in shipping - dropped sea-land container proof?
