Does anyone have a good photo reference for the plumbing connections of the 75 Gallon Drop Tank to the P-51B?

I wish I would’ve seen this post sooner…

These aren’t 75 gal… but they may be helpful. (maybe the paper one is though) These airplanes were award wining restorations in the static display at the Reno National Championship Air Races 2008 (They’re not racing planes, they’re like factory new)

Thanks Trexx - good photos, I think the larger paper tank plumbing is a little different but some real good detail of the sway braces.

I also plan on doing a D model, so these photos will come in handy.

The lower one (the wing with the invasion stripes going over the top of the wing is definitely a “B” it had a Malcom Hood and everything!)
