Sandown Stuka relic …

Anyone know who the private owner of this relic that was at one time on display at the Isle of Wight Museum is ?
Believed to be Junkers Ju 87B wk.nr. 1394 , A5+DN of 5./St.G.1 , unless anyone knows different….

To answer part of this question, a document posted on the RAF Museum website has this to say regarding the Ju 87 once displayed at a museum on the Isle of Wight:

Ju87R-4 WNr 1394 A5+DN Private, UK. Rear fuselage and cockpit parts.

The former Front Line Aviation Museum, Sandown Airport, IoW, displayed the rear Fuselage, propeller, canopy frame and undercarriage parts of Ju87B-1 WNr 5518 A5+DN recovered from Fishbourne Creek in the 1970s; these survive in private ownership and some are now on display at the Wings Museum at Balcombe, West Sussex..
