Changing the wing of a P-40

I think the thruly burden of the P-40 was his wing whose profile was as old as the A75A even in the P-40N.
This is the reason I look for a candidate to a substitute of the wing...the wing of the T-6.
However the photos was taken from http://www.fantasyplanes.com/2009_11_01_archive.html

Some ideas are just so...perfect. This is one of them. You mentioned that the pictures came from another website but is this your own model, Pablo? Really terrific modeling when a kitbash this good shows no flaws under a natural metal finish. Wow.

Outstanding idea. It looks as if it was design in that fashion. To a P-40 fan like myself, this looks just right!
