  This is the Vultee V-11A NR14980 heavily rebuilt into the V-11T NX14980. It served as a Pratt & Whitney engine test bed between ca 1940-45. No idea what is going on here. Perhaps P&W decided they needed a new barbecue grill so here we are with a nice smoke chimney, fan and all.... (just kidding off course.... 😄) Stig
