    P47 as cargo load in the back of a 2 1/2 ton truck Pic Needed.

    Hi
    I'm hoping that someone on this site maybe able to help me.
    I'm a model maker, mainly armour etc. I had a pic on my computer of a USAAF 2 1/2ton Truck carrying a P47 Fighter as cargo in it's load area.
    I've Lost the pic cant find it anywhere. The Pic was taken sometime late 1944 in France as far as I can remember.
    It was taken as if you where looking out of a 1st floor window down onto passing traffic. The Truck was carrying the Fuselage of the P47. There was No Wings, No Tail , No Engine & the Cockpit was covered so I'd presume it was a Crashed plane.
    I need this pic foor a Build I'm trying to do.
    I've searched for hrs on Google with No luck.
    Any Help would be Great.



    Shaun

    I think I might have some similar pics, both P47 and P51. But, they're taken in Liverpool, when the aircraft were being transported from the docks to Speke (Liverpool airport) for assembly, before going to Burtonwood.
