Since this wreckage is listed as residing at the Military Museum, I doubt it will ever be recovered by someone--it has become national heritage.

I've seen some photos in a publication depicting some intact Skyraiders in hangars along with stacks of Wright 3350s still in their shipping crates, complete with intact overhaul tags.
