Victor XL164 for sale?

I came across a mention of the cockpit of XL164 for sale last year.. does anyone know if it sold? I was thinking something like that might be useful at elvington or newark?

Peter,

You’re really into Victors at present – you ought to come over for this gathering! 😉

As posted elsewhere on here; someone from NAM viewed this, but my understanding is they’re no longer interested.

The nose of XL164 is still for sale.

Someone made an offer last year then withdrew it.
It is just about empty inside.

It was used recently by a someone for filming and we have others looking at using it. So at the moment it’s generating revenue!

There is no great pressure to sell it, a number of people have expressed interest in it. I believe that Peter Vallance had been offered the contents a few years ago, so the panels etc to refit it do exist.

I heard it was completely gutted with nothing left worth robbing.

I saw a website very recently with ‘For Sale’ written over it
