A fairly rare F2H-2P photographed many years ago in Howell park, Baton Rouge Louisiana, had the same condition as the F2H-2P in the Vero Beach, Florida, park -- the cockpit and engine bays filled with concrete to keep it on it's wheels. The Vero Beach acft was rescued and can be seen in the USN museum. This bird is still in Baton Rouge and was rescued by those with less money. It is said to be the only static display positioned on a painted deck as seen below.

The N7700C was Bill senior's F8F-2P BuNo 121608 and N700A was son Corky's bought from Grumman (demonstrator, never Navy) G-58B c/n 1262
Fornoff Motor Company was an Oldsmobile dealership and the color was a favorite Oldsmobile color, seen on the Toronado with the Mustang.
