I really hope a repaint comes out of a USAF Boeing T-43A Bobcat (737-253)...better known as a 'Gator.' They called it a Gator in the air force because they used it to train navigators. My father was an instructor navigator in T-43s from 1999 to 2003 at Randolph AFB, not to mention the fact that he trained in T-43s when he was in the USAF Nav school back in 1982 when it was at Mather AFB. My father went on to fly B-52s and B-1Bs in the USAF. I already have the CS B-52 Driver and Virtavia's B-1B, it would be nice to complete my collection of aircraft my father flew in the USAF with a CS 737 repainted as a T-43A.

This particular bird is on display at Randolph AFB, as they USAF T-43s were retired last year.

And here is a close up of the nose art. I personally took this picture in November of '09 at the Randolph AFB airshow:
