Hi MGM,
"Does anyone know the rough cost of rebuilding a pair of Spit wings to airworthy condition, spar replacement included ?"
I think the best solution is to ask a cotation to Airframe Assemblies. I think they are the best for doing this type of job. Have a look to: http://www.airframes.co.uk/
"And what is the cost of a new three blade Rotol prop for a Spit ,assuming a usable hub is available already?"
Hoffman propeller in Germany rebuild mostly all the propellers for the Spitfires, Hurricanes and David Price's Bf109E that are currently in flying condition. Have a look to:http://www.hoffmann-prop.com/
There is also Mark Harris's company Supermarine Aero Engineering that could help you I think.
Hope the above will help you.
Blue Sky,
