Fast growing museum adds another fighter. Last week they took delivery of 67-22581. Better known as Lou IV. They added the FG-1D "Marines Dream" last month.

Now that is just too cool. Am assuming this is Chuck Greenhills former LOU IV? What is cool is that this would a sort of a 'homecoming' as Col. Thomas JJ Christian the 361st CO and pilot of the original war time LOU IV is from Sulphur Springs, right down I-30 a few miles from Mt. Pleasant.

You are correct, this is Chuck's old LOU IV. Recently sold via Courtesy Aircraft Sales.

Wow this museum seems like it came out of no where and now they are buying almost every interesting airplane they can get their hands on. Well good for them, I wish I had funds like them!
