No, current constitution was redacted after the death of the dictator. There were mainly seven people involved in writing it. Between them, there was a communist, a socialist, a representative of the Basque and Catalan minorities, and only one who came from previous governments during the dictatorship. By the way, two of these seven people (the communist one and the representative of Basque-Catalan minorities) were from Catalonia (this is almost the perfect proportion taking into account the fraction of Spain that Catalonia represents, but if you know that Spain has 17 autonomous regions, it is obvious that Catalonia was not misrepresented).
You will read several comments here saying similar things (I have read something like that this constitution was only voted because the only other option was another war), but it is simply not true, as you can easily check in any independent source.
