Mustang Parts in the world and was able to incorporate these into the restoration of this Mustang. The use of precision jigs for major structural components has resulted in an extremely clean and straight aircraft. On the death of Mr. Arnold, the aircraft was disassembled and stored for a number of years. In 2003, the aircraft was shipped to the U.S. where a reassembly and detailed inspection was performed by Tab-Air. Included was a complete overhaul of the engine by Vintage V-12s. The current owner has flown the aircraft in excess of 150 trouble free hours.
