This is good news.

Early days I know, I just hope the opportunity is not lost to restore it back to how it was when it rolled off the Castle Bromwich production line in 1943, i.e. to that modification state, and therefore an accurate example of a mid production MK.IX.

Cheers

I too saw this on Facebook, excellent news for the Australian warbird scene! Congratulations to the new owner and to Pays for adding another machine to their “to do” list. Great stuff.
