Kev....another silver Spit for ya

Still working on the details, but I believe it to be an LFIX and a Polish Wing Commanders bird.

Hopefully I can nail down the serial and codes.  But I thought I'd at least throw it out there for ya.  It would be on the IX model I believe.

Looks like an IXe to me, WOOHOOO, perfect for XVI.

Definately late model IX, absence of starter cartridge bulge front lower nose,

The more I think about it, the more I think it might even be an XVI as the Polish Squadrons were all flying XVIs at the end of the war, in particular the Squadrons where this photo was taken.

Hoping to get some help from a Polish Spit Squadron expert on it.  Fingers crossed on getting a helpful answer in the next couple days.

Don't think its a XVI though - 5 spoke wheel, didn't XVI have 4 spoke ones. My bet is an LF IXe.

Have the bare metal already all but done, just been waiting on something to use it with.

Cut off for the next skins batch is the end of the week.

Hope I'll know more before then.  Starting a profile on it too.  Serial is fictional at this point.  Just have it for the look.

Just what I know so far :)

Hold the phone! Do you know something we don't??

If I were to look up your recent credit card purchases, would it include a hefty bill for a large order of Blue Bell being shipped to a certain place in Texas?

Fees paid for information gained??

Was just speaking to Skuzzy and he said any skins in this week would make the cut for the next batch.

That would be my guesstimate.
Skuzzy said he was starting to go through the current skins they had this week, therefore cut-off was end of this week.
