Default The Pacific

Close up of the release mechanism on the 'Break Back' L/L Chev.
The cables running in to the cab were pulled by a remotely operated actuator to withdraw the pins and release the lock strut.
When the lock strut released the chassis would fold. With a synchronised explosion it would look like the truck took a direct hit.
