GB-38 1:72 P-51B - Axis A/C

[Airframes]

The 'C' got the fuselage tank, and it was also retro-fitted to the 'B'.
The only real way to tell, is if the fuel filler is visible on the port side.

Thanks a million Andy and Terry!
In the pictures Paul posted, if looks like T9+HK has a fuel filler point just above the left arm of the port Balkenkreuz - is that right Terry? If so, the kit parts are correct

Btw, scratchbuilding a new flare chute for the cockpit at moment. Very small and tedious work.

Cheers again for the help guys!

The parts manual for the P-51 B and C shows the following sketch of items that would be visible through the rear quarter glazing but it's not clear if this detail is the same on C's and retrofitted B's:

Cheers Andy! Looks like a fuel gauge, extended to be seen while refuelling - is that right?

 

[Airframes]

Yep, that's the fuel filler cap on T9 + HK.

 

[Crimea_River]

Yes, it's a fuel gauge, meant to be viewed any time, not just on refueling.

Almost there with the undercarriage wells... time consuming but worth it I think.
