Tiger Moth, free to good home

[GolfWhiskeyHotel]

I have a friend that owns a Tiger Moth, It was stored in a hangar for some time and thieves robbed parts off it to the extent that its no longer flyable. My friend would like to see it in a museum or similar.  Maybe to someone that already has one ? 

It's stored in a hangar  in country Victoria . (East Gippsland)  Any interest?  Missing mags and carb I believe.  It once was a Joy flight aircraft at Tooradin, Yellow in colour.

The sad thing is, the thieves must have a use for this stuff and that makes them right sh!ts in my mind. Stealing from a fellow aviator, whether they are using it or not.
