My boss at the fbo I work at said back in the day they sold war birds for 600 bucks ready to fly and people bought em to melt em down  they made more money as scrap then flying ac they also told me a story about a squadron of 51s on a farm in Montana or something and the new owner had em all scraped cuz they looked ugly on his property
