TFC's B-model has a modified D fuselage, but the wings are authentic B-model (found in Israel as I recall), which are thinner than the D-models. The D-models had thicker wings to accomodate putting the guns more upright to improve the feed reliability.
: I know this has already been done with the fuselage of TFC
: 's P51B/C.
: How difficult would it be, and how expensive, to convert a
: D to an A/B/C for a strictly static restoration, includin
: g the wings ?
