Is Vintage V-12s doing the Jumo 211 work?

To be clear for others, the engine conversion with Jumo 211 engines would for Flying Heritage Collection's (FHC) Spanish built CASA 2.111 which has Merlin engines.

According to Preserved Axis Aircraft, FHC has a CASA 2.111B.

Don't mean to hijack the thread - but what is the status of the USAFM CASA 2.111 - it also mentions on the Classic Wings page that it is due for restoration with Jumo engines (first I had heard of that).

It is still in storage. I dont believe there are any plans to restore the plane given how much restoration work there is now and having no place to display it.
