Why in god's name would anyone want to take the pilot which has been undisturbed for 77 years and which is bent and move it anywhere. The 169 has a pilot and if a new one was needed it would be cheaper to build a new one than to repair the one at MP 309.3. The place it rests now will be poorer for its loss and the place it goes will be poorer for its arrival.
