The inside of the house probably looks something like this. I wouldn't mind having a "trophy" like that in my den..

Someone sure as heck killed it! I guess in a way the wall mount is fitting.

The nose is in the Michigan Historical Center in Lansing, as part of a display of Michigan's contribution to the War Effort. The plane is an actual Willow Run built bird, but aside from the turret, it's just an empty shell. understand it was part of a stripped out hulk recovered in Canada. The lower nose windows are painted on (incorrectly for a Ford-built bird)..part of the strictly cosmetic rebuilt. It could be worse..at least part of her was preserved.
