I saw the one at the NMUSAF in the restoration shop. It is going to require a ton of work.

I hear they plan to display it as is in a desert surounding as a nuclear target which is more of its history than as a advanced fighter. :shock: If this is not the case and they want it restored give me a call . :roll: Mustang driver can you post some photos?

Thanks Mike

I think they were going to fix it up some, but yeah, leave it as target, which is kind of cool.
