Anyone know of a current Fiat CR32 restoration project ?
I have a prop that is supposedly from a CR32 and if anyone is restoring one anywhere, would like to see if they can use it. Id say its only suitable for static restoration. I bought the prop but would pass it on at cost.

The Fighter Collection have a Fiat CR-42 undergoing restoration to fly in Italy - I dunno whether there's any correlation between the two types (they look very different) but if you are at Duxford, stop by Hangar Two and have a chat with the folk there...

thanks for that Treadigraph. I may get in touch with them to find out if the prop would be any use. I'd certainly love to see a CR42 flying again !

Yep, still a CR-42 in the Battle of Brtain bit at Hendon.
