When I clicked on this thread I must admit that I didn't fully read the title and somehow thought that a former "F2G" was being restored to airworthy condition. Ooops. We can dream, can't we? :axe:

With respect to paint schemes, I do like the idea of having a race scheme applied. It would definitely stand out among the crowd as others have pointed out here.

Bob Mitchum brought the airframe to Reno in 1967 in relatively stock FG-1D configuration but blew the engine on final approach of his arrival flight.

unfortunately they burned that one.... I guess Walters wife said he couldn't have 20% of the F2Gs..

And here it is at Jeffco in Denver back in 1992. Bob Axtell took the time off to let me see it when I visited Colorado that winter.
