Looks great so far. Love those sharpe angles on those 1970-1980 cars.

Rear wing construction, use the larger template (the one shown) to trace & cut out the endplates from .015 plastic. Establish the centerline of the wing to locate where the wing mounts will be located. Locate and scribe where the brackets will go that connect the upper & lower wing sections. Position the main wing section on the backside of the endplate template and mark with a pencil, cut out and use as a template on both endplates to locate the wing. Glue the wing to the endplate as shown. Glue the other endplate into position and then add the smaller air foil. Will do the brackets in a later post. A side note, if your wing is warped, heat it with hot water from the fawcet and press it over a curved object ( I used a rolling pin ) until it cools.

Have decided to do a hole new wing that will be a lot easier to assemble.

So I go to the speedway photo shop over a week ago looking for a shot of the rear of this car. I went through every page of two very thick proof books and find one! When I got the 8x10 back I am blown away by what I saw, the rear suspension is nothing like the 74 version of this car. I can get a good idea of the layout but can not see how the rear shocks are activated by the suspension so I will have to do some more research. At least the turbo system will not have to be rebuilt.
