Sadly, I found this on the web, & have to say I can’t immediately identify it. The fuselage looks similar to a Lockheed Ventura (Hudson), but the canopy is wrong-more like a Lockheed P2V Neptune. Of course, it may be a combination of aircraft parts-who knows?

DH Dove or Heron, I think.

Most probably a DH like mentioned above, these were owned by more than one US operator. Although it is possibly the “little brother” of; http://www.cybersalt.org/cleanlaugh/yourturn/yt28.htm
It IS a pretty sad affair, whatever it is, but thankfully it’s not a Warbird…[t$t]
yeah, that sure does look to be a DH Dove…the canopy really gives it away. WOW, someone had too much spare time and junk parts…
That is the ugliest thing I’ve seen on wheels next to the Oscar Mayer Weinermobile!

"It’s obvious what it is…
An ABOMINATION!"
GM (General Motors)?
Looks like a little kit bashin and scratchbuildin.
Looks like a carcus of a well eaten B-47.
Forgive them Father, they know not what they do…
no, the wing root is all wrong, as is the tailplane. -47’s had a high-mounted wing…if I had to guess I would say it is possibly Russian, maybe something from Tupolev…
Looks the tupolev bear to me, judging by the tail.
Whatever it is, it’s kind of weird to see it sitting along side the road like that. Like it fell of the truck and nobody noticed.
I would guess at least two different planes. The empenage is an F-84F and the front looks a lot like a B-17.

1/2 a dozen kits and one set of box art to go on?
