"Fat Annie Miss 1944"
This strange bird was seen at the Grayson County Airport (Sherman, Texas).
According to airliners.net this plane started out as a USAAF C-54B 44-9023,
before being converted into Carvair No.9 as G-ASHZ for British Air Ferries.
Tail #N89FA
And from www.localhangar.com:
This aircraft started out in January 1945 as the C-54B Skymaster "Fat Annie" #44-9023.
In 1946 it was converted to its civilian DC-4 version. In 1962 N89FA was the ninth of
only 21 that were ever converted to the cockpit on top for car hauling thru the front
as "Carvair's". As of this date it is the last flying one of its type!
