Disapointing news for European enthusiasts: this one was in restoration in South of France and a Facebook page allowed to follow the restoration until a few months when the updates stopped.
I hope he will found a good home...

How do you make a small fortune?
Start with a large one and restore a warbird.
Ignoring other costs, $100,000 asked for a project that has a claimed 8,000 hours invested in it with a lot to go.
I continue to be amazed (and grateful) at the amount of committment, effort, organisation and skill that goes into restoration projects.
