I’m pretty sure that it was the same airframe split up for transportation.
Talking of Convair heavies, be interesting to know how the even more ambitous XC-99 resto is going?
Still moving parts I think

It looks really good lots of work on that.
Is it a composite aircraft or was it split up early on?
