But you should also look at the number of P-51s that have been purchased over the past year, and the numbers on rebuild - plus the numbers of 'new' Mustangs on the scene.
The demand is still there and I reckon with the pound/dollar rate at the moment you will see some more Mustangs in Europe. Do bear in mind that prices are not exactly going through the floor at the moment!
Still an exceptional investment if you can get one! The economy won't be flat forever and I believe there is enough 'power' out there in one shape or another to ensure that no one grounds Mustangs or any other warbirds either in the U.S. or the U.K. If you look at the current legislation you will see the restrictions are more on the pilots than the machines - apart from the 'airplane ride' legislation the FAA are trying to enforce.
Just my Euro's worth
