Joel, one thing I have to admire is the paint that is still on the cars really doesn't want to come off! I fallowed the instruction for my paint remover and had to apply it 3 times! LOL
One of the wheels is part broken, but I don't thing I want to take it apart as it still holds a tire on it. I will take a photo later and post it here for any ones thoughts!

Mike'.. Excellent job removing the paint. And you are correct'.. I have a Corgi Chevy that I have soaked three times in paint remover, and still has paint on it that just won't come off. What brand paint remover did you use? It came out good'...

You'll find that krylon or Rustoleum plain primer gray, works best. I also use the Krylon sprays for the final coates.

I think if you use a good brand crazy glue, you can repair the broken wheel.

You are doing a heck of a job'... I don't think this will be your last restore'.

I cant wait to see your fire engine when finished'... 😁
