I treasure the dataplate of a P-51D-20-NA (364th FG vet) that was scrapped in 1958 after s.o.c by the Swiss AF...... am I a Mustang owner ? :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I am sure if you have a million dollars you can have the whole of that Mustang (if you want)

Jeeze Guys,get over it,a war hero died as part of an effort to maintain our right to all have a freedom of choice in life and all you are worried about is the amount of original material left under the data plate.What would you like it to be called?By the way JimH,that shade of blue masking tape is WAY too blue :lol:

I have a love/hate thing with polishing aluminum. I blame my Dad for all those years as a kid polishing the fuel tanks on his Kenworth. :lol: But I could polish on that ALL day. :cool:

Yes, Martin, you ARE! :cool: So get crackin' on the rebuild. :lol: I have plenty of friends and a some customers that built an entire car around 1 part. You can do it! ;)

Ryan,
I've got a blank one.
If I pound Preddy's 51's s/n on it how much will ya pay?

Fri Jun 27, 2008 3:06 pm

Like I said, they're not worth anything here - $5.00? I reckon that'd cover about 15 minutes of your time.

:D LOL :lol:
