The Restoration of Sandbar Mitchell Welcome to the Restoration of the B-25J Sandbar Mitchell. Here you will find monthly updates on the restoration of Sandbar Mitchell.
Update for December 2013: The museum has been incredibly busy since getting Sandbar Mitchell back to the museum shop here in Michigan. The center section of Sandbar Mitchell has been visually inspected and pieces are coming off in the restoration process.
The museum has enlisted this incredible group of high school students who are a major part of the labor force. Under the mentoring of director Patrick, they start with a broom and work their way up to drilling rivets. These young men come over after school and with all that youth and enthusiasm are really making great strides in meeting the ten year goal to having Sandbar Mitchell airworthy.
