I think that one might be the one that was at Hickam that the Pacific Air Musuem traded to Aero Trader for the new one for their museum.

Yes it is the trade for the aircraft they did for the museum but it's real rough, it would probably make a good movie prop. The center section had heavy plates going to the outter wing panels to hold them on and up.

B-25J 44-31504, RCAF 5218, N9753Z. There are pictures of it before it left Hawaii on the Aero Vintage Forum: http://aerovintage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=159

Yes, with three props missing.

Thanks for the ID folks!

Anyone want to see pictures of intergranular corrosion? Lots of good pieces, but some of it looks like a soda cracker.
