Looking to buy the front of a 747
 
I wasn't quite sure which forum to post this in .... as its a strange ques.

A member of my family is interested in obatining a front section, including cockpit of a 747- (any model) fueslage for a addition to a house in Australia. I know there are a few aircraft grave yards in the U.S, but i have no idea how one would go about obtaining this. does anyone have any ideas of where to ask and the type of money involved?

thanks ....

Was in Mumbai the other day, Air India have a couple of old 74-200's sitting there, one of which was half dismantled with just the forward section visible (upper deck forward).
