I just found this blog about a P-51D restoration in Sweden (Its actually an S-26, which is a Swedish modified photo-recon Mustang). There are more pictures on the blog, I just wanted to give a taste here.

Although it will not fly, its nice to see these things are taking place.
Maybe one of our Swedish members know more?

I checked the website of the Swedish Air Force museum and this individual is listed there, so it appears to be owned by that museum. The Swedish registration number of this S26 was 26084. According to my sources, the US serial number of this P-51D was 44-72112 and it was delivered on January 20th 1945.
BTW, apparently the Swedish Air Force museum is closed until June 2010!
