Re: Original vs Correct,, New Body Acceptable?
SS427,
Those warbird restorations are in a league of their own. We must realize new components are replacing the originals due to safety concerns, and strict enforcement of the FAA airframe inspection standards. People die when components fail in these old birds.
Have you been up to Mary Jane field? A number of nice a/c reside there. Have a friend restoring an A25 for the AF Museum. Mustang round up is fun, and they are not ferds!
All said and done, the nostalgia bug hits all generations, we are fortunate to have such an active and interesting hobby with our cars.
