The Beech model 50 Twin Bonanza was produced from 1951 to 1963. It had a
conventional fuselage. While it was called the Twin Bonanza it was not a
Bonanza with two engines.

Oops. That should have been, "It had a conventional empennage".

Actually, they took a Bonanza fuselage, split it down the middle, added
a slice, lengthened it, added a wing center section and bigger gear and
the T-Bone was born.

The only butterfly tail twin that started life as a Bonanza was the
Fleet Super V, which had a pair of Lycoming IO-360s, and came out about
1963.
