    Round or Square? A sanity check...

    This is a scale model of a 1977 car.

    Can anyone confirm whether the rear arches on the model are square arches or round arches?
    Yeah, yeah, yeah.. I know I should know myself and I do think I know.
    But, well, you know... it would be good to be right.

    How about rounded off square arches?

    They're the square arch. 100% no doubt!

    Pinto ran at No.4 on the '77 TDC with square arches.
    Munari ran at No.1 on the same event with round arches.

    They could be squound. Or rare. But I wouldn't worry cos the motor will be wrong anyway - far as I know, they never made an electric Stratos.
