Whatever happened to this P-38?

Just imagine what a formation of these two birds would look like today. Black and chrome anybody? (I know, technically it's not "chrome".)

Cool But you need to add the prop's spinning on the Red Bull P-38 and then you have something there. and then add the other 5 from when they were in flight together before heading to Sacramento a couple years back. Then add 'Tangerine' to that photo ...

Even with them 10 years gone, Gary's still out front!

Gary and Lefty always had a 'friendly' rivalry, whether they were racing their P-38's at Reno/Mojave/Miami, or even if they were traveling to and from airshow's together. Gary ALWAYS wanted to beat Lefty. One year...I think it was maybe at the '79 Miami race, Gary spent a LOT of dollars to have Mr. Moneybags (Sandberg) build up some 'super Allisons' or him. Lefty, on the other hand, showed up with White Lightnin which had two bone-stock Allisons in it, dripping with oil and just kind of ugly looking....and promptly out-qualified Gary.

Gary had a fit and was literally throwing wrenches around and cursing Sandberg's 'super engines'. He finally took a deep breath and in typical Levitz fashion announced "I just HATE these problems you can't solve with money!"

I see it every week. Would really like to repaint it to represent an early war OD/Gray P-38.
