This is one of the Jean Garric machines built in Texas:

Therefore it rules out the examples that were at Duxford, OFMC’s went to New Zealand some time ago and is now based at Wanaka IIRC, TFC’s went to the US, I recall, as part of the Razorback P-47 deal.

From the ‘location’ given in the ad it seems as if this machine is still located in the US.
