Hi All:

Does anyone know the best way to dismantle a Commer Bottle Float 21c, which has the base slotted in? Nor rivets.

Thanks,
Tito

A thin lever(s) between the body and baseplate close to the slot and tab. Pry gently, just enough to pop the base off.
The body should have enough flex to allow this.

Right. Snap on, snap off. My tool choice for the above task is a dull pocket knife.

Hi Tito,
Now you have it apart what are your plans?
Custom or Restore?

Custom food truck "Choripan." Going to save the colors, which I think they look nice.

Cheers,
