idea :shock: auction the paint scheme off to the highest bidder in a silent auction, then use the money and donate it to your favorite charity. Companies excluded though. You would want a families grandfather's scheme instead of having a company's name on it. Just a idea

If the aircraft in question is currently Ridge Runner III it has an interesting history:


01/23/45: Del. USAAF
Served with the 9th AF, 354th FG, 356th Fighter Squadron coded AJ R.

1947: Swedish Air Force Fv26087 F16 coded rM, fH, rD, later F8 coded grD
1955: Nicaragua AF GN85

Incorrect, it is not Ridge Runner III.

Thanks guys/gals for all the ideas.

The God's have spoken. I found a scheme that no one has yet to come up with and one that has never been on a restored Mustang ....

Keep your eyes peeled for it soon !
