Default Please Identify

Definetly not a Convair 880. The attached picture shows a longer nose and a
completely different window pattern. The original poster said that he took
the photo in the 40s area of the Hobby Navy Museum. The humped up area
above the windscreen really throws you off. That pattern is more indicative
of a DC6. The large nose wheel well also loos like a DC6. As far as I
know, aircraft of that era did not have a forward cabin entrance door. It
was usually aft of the wing.

This picture was posted last week and is from a museum. Please idenify.
Looking at the side entrance door and the passenger windows that are
covered
up, it looks like it was a converted vintage airliner.

Thanks to the original poster.
