Maybe someone knows about this one. It is mounted at Dave Tallichet's now closed restaurant near LAX. Looking under the aircraft it appears to have all the correct lines, like the gear doors, breather posts, engine panels, but I am not sure.

A beautiful 'replica' but for some reason it was not matched to the actual YFM Dakota II. That bird in real life was a P-51D-10, 44-14711 serial no. I had a conversation with original owner Doc Reichert some 10 years ago, but can't remember the name of the outfit that produced this. No P-51D-30-NA (44-74524) served in ETO
 
The National Air & Space Museum on the mall in DC began a revitalization project last summer. They are re-doing the WWII section as part of this and all aircraft had to be removed. Here is the fuselage of P-51 'Willit Run' begin taken apart.
