I am pretty sure that we determined a month or so ago that the P-51 is the ex-Bill Speer "Pegasus" wreck being rebuilt.

Did 'Pegasus' not become 'Voodoo'?

Perhaps this is the ex-George Enhorning 'Passion Wagon', which became Bill Speer's 'Deja Vu' (or at least the paperwork did)

Didn't the guy who own it pass away recently? His name was (Shell?) or something like that!

Yep, you're right. Brain fart there switching up the Speer Mustangs. This is the one that crashed at Reno.

The B-17G is a collection of parts from 44-83722 and 44-83316.

I visited Kissimmee this weekend and snapped this photo of the P-51 project in question....

I also saw parts of the B-17 project...mostly parts of a couple wrecked firebombers, but didn't take any photos.
