We called it the "maroon and gold" Mustang. My dad's buddy took these photos at the 1970 Watsonville (California) airshow. The airplane was owned by George Perez and I think he still has it. [/ QUOTE ] Here is another photo of George's P-51 serial #44-74483 Rick

It is too bad they have basically killed the unlimited air races, used to love going to the Phoenix 500, quite loud and low, too many gozillionaires dying though

Wanna go for a ride with this guy? Shows the maneuverability of this 40 yr old design, still in production. The guy flying is a damn good stick.
