You are quite welcome. I am sure the folks in Minnesota will be very pleased.

I gratefully acknowkedge the help and talent contributed to make the Night Prowler come to life. Pfinn for the beautiful aluminum prop hubs which I'm leaving as is. Phil also did the art work for the decals. David, Scigs30, for making such incredible decals. And Ted, Frwyflyr, for making the rear radar antenna, the radar antenna below the fuselage, the direction finder, and the stunning front landing gear assembly. Two small doors and one panel line remain to be done and after that I'll rest a couple of days, look it over, take some baby pics, and then ship it to Minnesota next week.

I cut a small hole in the fuselage about 1/16" deep to glue the piece into.

The final piece of the puzzle, also made by Ted, is this wood direction finder.

The Eagle radar antenna made by Ted is in place. He left a small hole in the center to align the piece so I glued a piece of wire into the fuselage and then glued the piece onto the wire to help hold it in place.

I just thought that t-shirts were considered much more of an undergarment in the 40's than they are today and so wouldn't have bold (or any) printing on them. But printing the wing's emblem makes sense (more so than a Sinatra concert t-shirt!)

Twin 20mm's and APG-15 radar antenna installed. The ball is a cover protecting the actual radar dish. The brass rod simulates the waveguide to the antenna.

He also sent this cast resin ball on a brass rod.

Ted sent these. They're from the Czech Republic.

Peregrin: I think this is what is on the T-shirt and I would think that silk screening has been around awhile.

finally had a chance to read through the website tribute to Night Prowler pilot and crew. That is a inspiring read. Love this photo, wish I could read the printing on that guy's t-shirt. For some reason I didn't think people silk-screened t-shirts back then! honestly!
