If you are talikg about A3-100, that was not JQ's mud lark.
A3-100 is the Darwin RAAF Base gate guardian (display and memorial) left by 75SQN back in the late 90s

JQ's sat outside the Darwin Aviation museum for a few years, looked real good with that big ding under the intakes and that, Banana look to it. The Army carted it away to Tindal a few years back under a chook. I hav'nt seen it since but I understand it was rebuilt from some spares from other aircraft and maybe even the old tail from outside DN Ops. If its all shiny and new now so be it, but personally I prefered it the way it looked when he left it. (no offence JQ)
