I wonder how much of the original B52 is actually left in a modern B52.
Like, has every nut, screw, bolt and panel been replaced over time, such that a modern B52 literally has not a single atom in common with one made in the 1950s/60s?

By original you'd have to mean a 60s B52H, since all the rest are out in the desert.
