Only one fuselage exists at the Smithsonian's Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Centre.
This new one will need a bit of clean.

It will be interesting to see just how far they can go with this. When I visited Judy Pay's workshop, (couple of shots at Airspeed's Flying Visit), the restorers showed me some before and after undercarriage parts. They had transformed an almost unrecognisable lump into a factory fresh looking item. It was incredible.
