Shell Removal / Renumbering on Southern Pacific Black Widow LifeLike N SD7

The following photos document the rather intricate procedure to remove the shell on the N scale LifeLike SD7 / SD9 (it's much different than removing shell off N scale Atlas or Kato locomotives).
It's based on Andre Kritzinger's excellent work that showed us all how to do that in the
first place: http://mysite.mweb.co.za/residents/grela/lifesd7-sd9.html
Following that, photos for renumbering procedure on four Southern Pacific Black Widow SD-7's using the LifeLike N scale SD7.
