same plane in arizona before it was moved to the FHC. iirc that is the last time the engine was started but as you can see, it does run.
a running engine (with difficulties) doesn't make a plane airworthy...
I would warmly suggest you guys get info on what it takes to keep a warbird airworthy before making comments like this.

Yes, they're gonna keep on running it, until they're gonna seize it (because they don't have spares for it), and then?
