Like its successors, the Arrow Plane used quite a few Ford parts, including a Ford engine. Unlike its successors, the Arrow Plane used a simple few gauges and a Ford four-cylinder fitted with a Miller overhead-camshaft conversion (instead of a V-8). Voelpel specified that the engine be mounted in the rear of the car and drive the front wheels.

IA #14, December 1972-January 1973, was kind of a landmark issue in Hemmings history. Not only did we publish the Hoax!? article, but it was the first issue in which we mentioned the McQuay-Norrises – the six all-aluminum semi-teardrop-shaped vehicles built on Ford chassis that later became almost synonymous with Hemmings when Terry Ehrich bought one and displayed it out front of Hemmings HQ.
