Hi

I am having a model made of the Abe Lincoln from this period. The problem is that there is no AL model, but will be a modded version of a basic Nimitz model. All the Nimitz's have slight differences particularly in the Island antenna and radars etc.

So i am trying to find out exactly what AL looked like in this time period. Does anyone know where i can find pictures or info?

Thanx

Google and wikepedia are good sources

First place i looked and no good.
Not for the specific timeframe.
Lots of the google images don't have a date and the carriers been around 20 years now.
