ID Request on shot down Ju88

Would anybody be able to ID a Ju88 (and if possible details of its downing) which had been shot down and parts of which were used in an exhibition at Blytheswood Square in Glasgow in 1940 and possibly the wreckage from the same one was shown in Lanark on 18-24 November 1940 for the District Spitfire Fund at messrs Lawrie & Symington’s Auction Mart.
Many Thanks
Keith

It doesn't add much Chris, other than it's got the early style wheel hub:

Take your pick! As you say, doesn't help very much unless another photo appears (Andy Saunders?)

That is the photo Clint - I saw it on Hidden Glasgow forums. I can't really think of any other way of trying to track it down. I am assuming the RAF may have been responsible for carting the stuff around but I don't know where to look there either as I suppose there would not have been a unit dedicated to this type of thing???
