1978 Arco Eagle

[jamesharvey]

I am working on Kevin's model and need some help to finish it.
Were the suspension pieces chrome?
Can anyone share a picture of or describe the rear wing support?
What color should the bottom of the floor pan be?
What donor kit did you use for the intake and exhaust manifolds and the turbo system?
Thanks for any help.

As far as I know there shouldn't be any donor needed with that kit......
I know the front suspension is chrome, but I'm really not too sure what is going on in the rear.....

Kevin would be the one to ask, Jim. He is a great guy, and I'm sure he can help you out.

Thanks for all the comments, pictures and suggestions, guys. Chris, the photo album really helps. As is often the case, the car changed during the course of the year in terms of number placement and rear wing support. I can see that the front suspension was chrome as well. I am missing the turbo as I need to look in my parts boxes. Thanks again. Back to building.

Hi Jim
The suspension was all chrome. Floor pan should be black. This was produced as a full kit. All the parts were included so no donor is needed. As far as the rear wing support, I would click on the original Arco Graphite Eagle Build and there are a few nice shots of the rear wing support. I believe that there are only 4 pieces to assemble it so it shouldn't be that hard. Thanks Kevin K.
