Those fuel tanks were still popular when I was a kid, for salt-flat racers.

Not long ago, I even saw a few in the local scrap yard, being prepared to be recycled.

Yep, good historical photo here...plus, that has to be the biggest sharkmouth I have ever seen on a P-40...it's so large, it extends onto the wingroot!
