I haven't seen or heard of it since Neil Rose divested himself of his warbirds ie Hurricane, PV-2D & SNJ. He also had the hulk of a a-26 in one of his hangers. I don't think bob Irvine has stopped crying since the J went away.

Here's a picure of it I took two years ago at the Traron Formation Clinic in Merced CA: http://www.sfahistory.org/merNAT2550t6.jpg

I delivered it to Las Vegas for the new owner about 5 years ago, John Anson

I take it the name "Scrap Iron IV" has nothing to do with Larry Blumer and his P-38 then?
