Any local opportunity (or even desire) to save a cockpit section or two?

[Bearcat SA]

I really hope they save the cockpits and other bits that would be good for man caves .. but I dont know..
Here is a cockpit shot

Probably cost prohibitive for Everts to have picked them up

Interesting history on 9Q-CYO:

No! Those birds look like they could still be flyable. Such a shame!
