I'm not sure the 'G' can be classed as 'under restoration' unless its status has changed since GML. 'Substantial remains in storage' would be a more accurate description. Still, it's a nice artifact, and hopefully will be rebuilt in to a complete airframe at some point in the future.

John Morgan's website labels this a "restoration project". Occasionally he lists "Project Updates" such as these:

If the G is actually in storage and not being worked on, I apologize for misleading readers.
