AMARG still had some EB-57Bs in Jan this year e.g.https://www.flickr.com/photos/elaref/13 ... 0079822715 and at least one B-57E https://www.flickr.com/photos/elaref/13 ... 079822715/
The problem now is getting parts out of there at all, since they tend to insist on frames being 'shredded' after the Iranian Tomcat Spares 'problem'.
None of the scrapyards, which would presumably be a better route, have had any B-57s recently that I can see from Andy Mardens book US Mil Out of Service 2013/2014
