Jimmy Leeward likes to show up at shows each year with a different mustang. Mostly "Cloud Dancer" #9, but you never know. #9 seems to be the only thing that does not change. 2001: Oct. firewall forward restoration began by Dan Martin in Hollister, CA 2005: wins Bronze by passing P-51A Polar Bear after playing with him most of the race. 2006: installed the old cut-down race canopy and a race Merlin. Came back just before the start of the Gold race with a cracked header tank which means coolant is streaming out and you have to land very soon or burn up your Merlin.         Images of     44-84615     N55JL     " Cloud Dancer " 57 pics on file       Image Credits:   Bob Garrard     Curtis Fowles - MustangsMustangs     Dariusz Jezewski - FotoDJ     Gerald Liang - courtesy Warbird Aero Press     James McMurray     Jim Buckel - Ron's Archive     Mark Kallio     Thomas Walker - American Aero Services     Need to use any of over 6000 images at MustangsMustangs?
