Randy took the words right out of my mouth. I have often wondered why Spillers bothered to bring anything down off the mountain other than the data plate. The story I read regarding the restoration said that along with the D fuselage and wing a NOS canopy and cowlings were also utilized in the restoration. So what does that leave of the original wreck that was used? I'm not bad mouthing anybody, just wondering. Although I would love to see it returned to a more stock A model appearance it is, and always has been, a very neat airplane and a testament to the will of Moon Spillers.


PS - I read a short blurb regarding the rework of this airplane somewhere on the net just within the last few weeks. Might have been on Facebook, can't remember. At any rate I was sure that I read a quote by the current ownder stating something to the effect that the airplane would much more resemble a stock A model when Pacific Fighters was done with it. Wishful thinking on my part maybe?
