    Restoring Spitfires in New Zealand.

    They certainly do a good job in turning an old wreck into a fully flying Spitfire. Wish I had a couple of million spare dollars to buy one.

    Thumbs up

    BRILLIANT post. How good are those guys.
    When I was in the UK, several years ago, we visited Duxford Airfield which is the centre of a massive WW11 aircraft resto industry.
