Does anyone have contact information (an email address or phone #) for this P-47 which was/is sitting in a lot adjacent to Davis Monthan AFB?

I think this is the plane that is now with the Hill Museum for restoration.

If this is the same aircraft in question (I think it was listed for $ 300K - $400K range) then I've read that this airframe was full of corrosion and would take much effort to make flyable.

Anyone know what it finally sold for?

regards,
