Steve, That's a great story! The P-51 was and always will be my favorite
airplane, I probably built five Revell models of them as a kid. Did the
owner explain how he got the plane out of the vacant lot?
I was fortunate enough to make it to Rickenbacker in 2007 to see the
Gathering of P-51s, there were 108 Mustangs there all parked in one
spot. As you can imagine, the low-level flyby with over 60 P-51s in
formation was an experience beyond words! They still maintain the site:

Tigers,
I answered some questions about Carnuba wax a few day's ago, and related
how I worked for "The Pep Boys" in their Burbank/Glendale store. Well,
it also unfroze some of my memory cells about that job.
