Doesn't look like the images are working, and I was so excited to see them! :) Let me know if I can help at all.

That's better! Thanks for sharing your pictures with me, they're great. Now I will have to go and research that 2nd one a bit, I'd like to learn more about it.

The 'F4U-7' is in fact an ex-Argentine Navy F4U-5NL nightfighter BuNo 124541, re-configured with the radar pod removed and -7 cowlings added to be an F4U-7 lookalike.
