Some great pics bobby, you guys dont realise actually HOW lucky you are. Over here in the UK, we have B25's, B17's, and a few twin seater Spitfires to name a few that are privately owned, but you cant fly in them like you can over their. All issues with insurance etc.
Liking the pics though, the one i actually like the most is the Dauntless!!! Its a plane i do like, thanks for sharing.
As for your pic of the Japanese "val" (think its a val) the chances are its probably a Vultee BT-13. Just slightly modified to look like a Val. No doubt a movie star right their having probably stared in Pearl Harbour/Tora Tora Tora
