Let's see, a high-time aircraft that has served with the Blue Angels. Stress fractures anyone?
IIRC, the US govt. doesn't allow modern combat aircraft from the US inventory to end up in private hands. The only us-built combat jets that are available are those that have been sold to foreign governments.
If it did come from the US Navy, it is unlikely to be airworthy.
