TFC P51C 43-25147

Don't want to throw a possible cat among the pidgeons at all, but can someone say exactly where the ID of TFCs P51C comes from ?

I know it is not from the tail unit used in the rebuild,43-6351.

I know it is not from the cockpit section which was P51D ex IDFAF "13"(is the USAAF serial known for this one?).

So is it from the wing?
And how come the wing of P51C-10NT 43-25147 ended up in Israel in the first place, did someone sell the Israelis a spare Mustang wing and it turned out to be unusable as it came from a C instead of a D, bet they weren't pleased about that !!??

Cheers
Mick
