Very nice.
I expect those are drop tanks?

They're tanks, all right. And judging by the red filler caps on their noses, they're very much in use.

I doubt that Jack Roush would really want to drop them.

Genuine WWII drop tanks never looked so good, being made mostly of paper.

Good call

Thanks!
I was really surprised to hear they're made of paper! I suppose it must have been rather thick!
