In the US if you are licensing the aircraft as Experimental Exhibition, you can have any serial number you want, i.e. "Karen 001." If it is certified in the Limited category like a P-51D, you can probably certify it as an aircraft built from parts that conforms to the original type certificate. In this case you could probably also pick any number you wanted, but YOU would be the manufacturer, not North American Aviation... So "Karen 001" would work there too!
Hope this makes sense!

: I know in the case of P-51's, there can never be a new

: Thanks....
