I talked to a former member of the 13rh FIS when it was at Glasgow.
He has been in contact with the mayor of Glasgow and the local museum director about the condition of the T-Bird in front of the museum.
Mark posted some pictures that show the condition of the paint.
The paint and a skin polish are not a big problem and that work is being organized.
However, the canopy was severely damaged a few years back by a hail storm.
So, the 13th folks are looking to find a canopy.
I'm not sure if there are any left at Tucson, or any place else.
If one of you has the e-mail address for someone at the Bone Yard who might be able to help, send it to me and I will forward it to the 13th folks.
Thanks
Jim Too
