Lockheed at Galveston ID needed...

I saw this Lockheed Loadstar out behind the fence at Galveston.

Is this perhaps the former N43WT?

What is known of the status of this aircraft?

Thanks!

The wings and tail are now at Sports Flyers in Brookshire (a couple of hundred feet from where I write this), and yes, N43WT it is.

James Sawn bought it, and last time I talked with him about N43WT, he said that he would move the fuselage in the future, (so it will be a Brookshire International Air and Spaceport resident).
