This is the Cavalier Turbo-Mustang III, a Rolls-Royce Dart 510 turboprop fitted to a F-51D frame in 1968. The test results (and the plane?) were sold to Piper in 1970 and were used for the Piper Enforcer project, this time with an Allison T-55 engine. I wonder if the same airframe was used to build N201PE or N202PE? There is also a former Nicaraguan Mustang (44-63775) sold to MACO in 1963 and registered as N6167U, maybe the same airframe?
