Can get very depressing (or OPPressing) doing that with warbird ID's.
So then, if the wing IS from a B, which I did actually think it was, and 43-25147 IS definitely a C ( I looked it up), where did it's given ID come from ?
Was it from an ID plate, or a small component, or was it just "adopted" for registration purposes in the US????
Just for the record I have no problem with this Mustang at all, a good old honest and open mish-mash of components, just would like to know how it came by that ID.......after all, any razorback Mustang is better than none.....unless it was an A36A before the "restoration" started ;-)
Whoops, there I goes again, better shut my mouth while the going's good!
