Don't think I'd ever seen this before. Would make for a common project with a unique twist

Brings back memories. The good old days.
"It was the night before Christmas..."
It wasn't actually, that was a joke.
I was in Maine, 1994 I believe, had my Lake Amphibian, friends and other seaplane pilots, we were at a seaplane fun fly.
I landed my Lake at the airport, they had a shuttle, couple of minutes.
A great day of seaplane aviation and a bunch of really nice guys. Idea sharing and plenty to learn.
"When all through the house..."
There was this ramp with what looked like a dead DC3 on floats. Really, it sat there all day.
It was announced that "Everyone get out of the way of the ramp."
And everyone did.
Two guys climbed into the side of the aircraft and fired it up!
Holy @#$%! As the pilot rolled the thing down the ramp, we could look up at wing tips.
Yes, they circled the lake twice!
1996 there was one at Lantana. Possibly the same one?
1965 I flew as a passenger on one owned by the Ozark Airlines to Millington TN.
Just to see a girl.
Made this trip many times.
