There used to be a real P-40 flown by a Lady I think Sue Parrish that was painted pink. It was said that the color of th the WW2 planes appearing to be pink was caused by sun in the desert. THe last I heard is that her Plane is in a museum Indiana.
True.
RCU member 'The Mouth' can tell you all about it. Post #48 has the pics.
Sue Parrish did fly the actual airplane.
