Built as JG668 in 1944 for the RAAF, shipped to Australia on 4 April 1944 and allocated the serial A58-441. It spent most of its short service life in storage. The fuselage was located in 1986 stored on a farm near Oakey in Queensland, and recovered for preservation. After several changes of ownership in Australia it was sold in the UK in 2004 and registered as G-CFGA on 5 January 2009 with the intention of returning it to airworthy condition. The fuselage and engine have been displayed in The Welsh Spitfire charity shop in Haverfordwest since 2016, while wings etc are constructed.
