I'll let everone else fill in the blanks on the serial/bureau/N numbers & history.

Feel free Scott to take this for the registry if you want it.

This is ....

N2763A c/n CV-548 ex-N5609V, BuAer21232, 44-34037, BuAer68001 (not taken up). So, first in service as an OA-10A then a PBY-5A after transfer to USN.

Can anyone confirm the exact date it left Moses Lake by road and the subsequent arrival date at Chino please.?

We left on the 4th of July and they had been to dinner with us around the 30th.
