Spitfire Spares Hurricane for sale

Geoffrey Wikners Halifax III “Waltzing Mathilda” would have been a better choice. Pity they scrapped it.

Dave,

It would be nice to see a Hurricane in Australia but V7476 is not of any particular significance, dispite being the only Hurricane to make it into Australia and official RAAF service.

A far better identity to represent a Hurricane in Australia would be that of William John Storey – Australian Ace – 8 victories – No.135 Sqn.
Hurricane IIB Z5659 XK – C of No 135 Sqn, Mingaladon, Burma in February 1942

I wish i could afford to donate it, you have to be a rich man to donate something like this. I have decided to part with the Hurricane after allot of thought. We have bitten off more than we can chew. To do it justice its needs an owner with the facilities and finance to complete it. We simply don’t have the expertise or time available or finace for that matter to do it properly. With all the parts we have we could put it together to look good but would have to take alot of short cuts and thats not going to do it justice. I am open to part ex offers.:) I have a list of the bits available and will be posting pics of everthing when i get time.
