I trust that it was something to the effect of "What a wonderful pile of scrap metal, it must be a gift from Allah! Where did Abdul put the saws-all? Sorry boys, but it will be a miracle if this find survives the next few days. :(

Maybe a Hurricane or other fabric covered aircraft can be displayed that way, but a typical WWII all metal airframe is a monocoque (stressed skin) and would deffinately bend and wobble with no skin on.
