T-33 / P-80 airframe ID number help needed

Wed Mar 15, 2017 12:21 pm

Hi, I didn't want to hijack the P-80 flyer thread with this question. If a T-33 or P-80 is missing the cockpit data plate & paperwork trail, are there ship construction numbers etc located elsewhere on the fuselage / wings that can be used to figure out the true serial number ? I know how to find the MD "J" numbers on F-4 Phantoms for example, was wondering if Lockheed did anything similar.
Thanks for any help,
Kudzu
