The only thing missing is a set of guns and some missiles.

Looks like Charles Older's P-47 with the Flying Tigers; or I guess it could be any P-40 from 3rd Squadron "Hell's Angels" AVG.

I think it is supposed to represent an A-10 Thunderbolt II (also called Warthog)

I kinda like the camo paint scheme, the rest makes it a little much.

It is a direct copy of the 3rd Squadrons paint scheme on the AVG's P-40 Warhawks. The car even has that Squadrons red fuselage band. It is not Chuck Olders as the car has a number 53. The A-10 is also a copy of the AVG's tiger mouth.

BTW the AVG took the tiger mouth scheme from the British P-40s station in North Africa.

I have to say though this car is a direct translation of the "Hell's Angels" P-40s from China.

Im undecided on the ideal, the first thing that comes to mind though is incorporating the eyes onto the headlights which would draw more attention to the WS-6 hood scoops as nostrils!

It'd be neat to have in a parade and stuff, but I wouldn't drive it to work everyday lol.
