I've heard that Bob Spence's Swordfish HS554 C-GEVS is for sale again. Does anyone know what he's asking for it?

Dennis,

I noticed in passing, when I was there a couple of weeks back for the MoM event, that Bob Spence's other Swordfish project is now resident in Malta.

I guess this is an ex Ernie Simmons machine.

I was surprised how complete and good it was as a basis for a flying restoration.

These photos are a little dated, but I don't think it has changed appearance since they were taken...
