    It is considering it spent 45 years sitting out in the Mojave desert as a bombing target for the USN......before being towed out of the desert, and then undergoing a 16 year last nut and bolt restoration back to flying condition (largely by ex-Boeing Wichita workers only a few hundred feet from where it was originally built in 1944)
    Just the thing for putting round holes in square heads.
