The P47 was built about 10 miles from where I live. My grandmother worked for Republic as a "Rosie the Riveter" while my grandfather was of gallivanting in places like Guadalcanal. My father and uncle both worked at Republic for awhile. There were a lot of really talented tin knockers and panel beaters on Long Island...sadly we lose more every day.
I actually found cleco clamps among a stash of my dads tools that I inherited that probably came from Republic...
Cool video..
