This airplane was the last flying example. It was actualy a F-15 which was the photo version of the P-61. I dont know much more than you already do.It crashed on take-off in HOLLISTER,CA
I had heard that MIKE BOGUE had alot of parts from it with the possible intention of rebuilding one.But ended up selling them to the MID ATLANTIC AIR MUSEUM for thier rebuild.You may want to contact them for more info as Mr.BOGUE died a few years ago.They are the BLACK WIDOW experts and have probably looked for any trace of P-61 part around the world.
