Found this photo of the plane on internet several years ago. I knew from my father that uncle Bob's plane was named the Campus Queen, and I found it had been sold to the Swiss Air Force after the war. It is listed on this webpage (https://www.cebudanderson.com/swissmustangs.htm), although my uncle's name was not attached to the plane on that page.
