    Do you have a picture of the Ranger engined Texan? I have a postcard of this weird in-line engine version if you are interested in seeing. Let me know.

    FAU T-6G

    I've seen profiles of this one where the purplish gray is a chocolate brown, but I like this version and am starting a model to be in these markings.....
