I wish! To give you all a clue, it still has its original VC codes under the wings. :)

Well, here's the answer.
CF-100 Mk 2 18106 (2nd oldest surviving CF-100 after 18104)
Memorial Military Museum, Campbellford, Ontario. Formerly on display in Lambeth, Ontario (near London)
still has the codes VC-FBK under the wings...

DETAILS! we want details, be prepared to answer a question or two if we cross paths @ warbird weekend 'cause the gravel gobbler has some history @ Paine AFB. And I won't say a word until you make your presentations. And, by the by, back in the last 50's/early 60's the Air Guard unit @ Geiger had a going business in scattering F-89's over central and Eastern Washington
