Please think it over. The problem with the ICM Spit is that the engine can be displayed without the engine cowling only. As memo serves the engine is too long and doesn't fit the fuselage or the fuselage is too narrow to accomodate the power unit and its mount. . Well ... if you want to to show the power plant you need to omit the engine cowling.
Here the VZ-Z of the 412 Squadron RCAF without the beer barrels in France , June 1944.
Ralph,
You'll find here a probable and realistic rendition (IMHO) of the Johnson's mount during August 1944.
Note that the cannon bay covers should be the narrow ones I think.
What a fun read!!! Many thanks for this. Also, within the article, was a mention of Hursley Park in Winchester. I spent many a day working within that building complex. A marvel in itself. That and downing many a 'Bitter' in the oldest pub in England also located in Hursley.

Great photo, if the restore colors are accurate. I have been wondering what color to apply to the barrels, but I suppose even a grayish brown would do.
