Default P-51

Hey out there, I need some help. I bgt. an older P-51 from a buddy wing is 48" and fuse is about 38" and he doesn't know the cg. Does anyone have any ideas where I might check the CG prior to getting her airborne. This plane I'd say is about 20 years old. I'd appreciate any help and info. Thanks.
Rick.

You could always use 25-30% of the MAC (Mean Aerodynamic Chord).
