I have to say, the single-seaters really do look much nicer with the original noses.
Fully agreed !

Geez – time flies !
I attended that auction back then, too, and took loads of photos – must go find them !
Great idea !

The Mustang resided in Hendon until recently, in a generic 354th FG scheme, until replaced by Bob Tulius’ gift of ‘The Duck’. It was then moved to Cosford.
Make that 357th FG 363rd FS….

two more and then back to work…
