Has anyone seen a repaint for the JF DC-8 to represent the coolest still-flying DC-8, NASA's DC-8 Airborne Science Laboratory?

A ton of pics of the current and (cooler) original markings: https://www.dfrc.nasa.gov/Gallery/Photo/DC-8/index.html

You could repaint the 73 which at least has the high bypass engines.

Yeah, it'd be cool to have it even if it was a slightly fictional variation -- the 62 should match length-wise, or the 73 is closer but longer.
