Sadly, this is all that's left of it now.


It was used for trials work after it came back from Korea. After dodging
missiles at Woomera it was nearly scrapped in '64. Not a really fitting
end for the last RAAF fighter to score an air-to-air kill.


It's now on display at the Port Adelaide Aviation Museum, drop in if you're
visiting.
