That is a great photo! The B-26 always seemed like a hot rod.

Sure seems if they're not gonna restore her, it would be easy enough to put her together. IMHO she shouldn't be spit-shined.

I built a B-26 model for the Texas Aviation Hall of Fame for Mr. George Lane. He said he logged a few hours in Flak Bait! A really nice man. He carried his dog with him on a lot of missions. In his exibit there is a piece of flak that came out of a B-26 he was flying.

Does it look like the left nacelle is unpainted? It does to me.
