I found this in facebook

Dredged from a Russian lake, this ME 109E is subject of a restoration project.

The aircraft is owned by the Friedkins/Comanche Fighters and has been on display at the Planes of Fame Museum in Chino for a couple of years now, awaiting a full restoration to airworthy by Fighter Rebuilders (though I haven't heard anything recently about whether that has changed or not, or if the restoration has yet begun or not).
