Robert
Parmerter: "The original aircraft was re-engined with two
Continental IO-540 engines by Besler Corporation in 1963. In 1966
Continental Motors bought it and had Rawdon Bros add a third engine
positioned in the nose for testing the Tiara series engine. It was
former USAF C-45G 51-11785 and was scrapped in 2001."
