the gentleman w/the cowlings, he's the new owner of the whole plane correct? Hopefully he just didn't end up purchasing the stock cowls...

Absolutely wonderful! Looks like the new owner has the right idea. 8) Let's hope he takes advantage of the extremely rare original condition of the plane and goes full-stock resto with it. I'd dare say that this plane restored in the same WestPac tradition as the FHC machine would make it one of the most valueable fighters on the civilian market.

nathan, the 350 GT ( I think I see one in the background tehre) is one of the best roadsters ever built. It's just a sweet ride--only you almost never see them on the road becaus ethey're so expensive and so rare now. Truly a collectors item. Sort of like a P51 only not so common :p Or Dottie Mae, only not as awesome.
