P-51 "Old Red Nose" Looks like it is getting finished up.

I saw "Old Red Nose" sitting outside in ATL yesterday from afar and it looks like they are finished or close to finished with the new paint job. Does anybody have a picture of the finished product yet?

The paint job is finished and it looks great. They rolled the plane outside on Tuesday to do an engine run. The current plan is to fly it out of the Delta facility this Friday.

Okay I'm going to try and post a link that I got by email on the painting on that bird. The e-mail I got said it was okay to pass it around. Enjoy

Didn't take long to get the tramp stamp on that one.

To be honest, this was never one of my favorite schemes, but the airplane looks very good. IIRC, the Dixie Wing relies heavily on its rides program and fresh paint never scared away a customer; it may attract a couple.
