Does anyone have any photos of Gary Levitz's P-38 (circa 1975-80) at the CAF Airsho in Harlingen that they would be willing to share?

No, don't have any pictures at harlingen, but the aircraft is currently at War Eagles Museum.

On a P-40, the shark's teeth are certainly "normal." But I gotta say, I kinda like the look of them on the P-38. Were there ever any that actually had them painted on there like that in W.W.II? Jack?

The answer is yes... but I'd bet that Jack can pull up the photos faster than me. I've got some other stuff do do right now.

John Lane's dad Shady's sqd the 39th FS had shark's teeth on the P-38Fs.
But only in white with no other colors. I'll dig a few out. Also the 54th FS in AK had a few.
