CV-240 Waiting Patiently

[Pixel Pilot]

I was watching this railroad video when a propliner came into view. It seems that the track runs alongside the Apopka Orlando Airport(X04) and while waiting for the train to come by the camera man decided to zoom in on a CV-240 sitting in the grass/weeds. I hope that someone has plans to do something more than this with it. I looked at this airplane with Google Earth and no registration number is visible. It appears at approximately 2:37 into the video.

I found this on the internet just now. Thought I'd pass along:

Looks like they're trying to restore it for a museum.

Thanks for finding that Jorge. I was hoping that it wouldn't sit there just wasting away.
