N251GA is an absolutely stunning and incredibly rare Thunder Mustang. It is sorted, well-maintained, highly-upgraded, and recently flown. You will not find a better Thunder Mustang for sale in the current market. It has no known damage history, recently upgraded Garmin panel, new interior, and an engine that has been completely calibrated and dialed by Shane Teklenburg (highly-renowned racing engine management and calibration expert). The plane was repainted in 2014 with a World War II P-51D paint scheme (shown in the last photo in the Controller photo gallery) but it currently is custom-wrapped in a modern racing scheme. N251GA is an amazing example of a Thunder Mustang and is ready for a new home!
