Jim Cooper's resolve and dedication should be a shining example to youth. What chance such a wreck could ever be restored to airworthy condition. Impossible - but not to Jim and his team! In decades past better preserved a/c wrecks might have been thought as beyond hope and sold for scrap.
I love the harsh growl of that R.R. Griffon engine.
For anyone interested in vintage aircraft, here are Hurricane (Canadian-built), Bearcat (ex-Royal Thai Air force) and Wildcat (which US called [the F4F] the Wildcat, and the British initially called the Martlet. I believe this is a later GM-built model FM-2 though, for which the British dispensed with their earlier unique name, reverting to the American name and calling it the Wildcat IV.)
