According the the Connie Survivors website, these are:

L-749 N9463 c/n 2602 Columbine II
L-1049 N105CF c/n 4137

Columbine II was offered for sale last year for $3.2 mil, but I don't believe there were any takers.

N105CF was a parts bird for one of the Connies that went overseas, I believe.

I think this field used to be called Avra Valley Airport. Evergreen's big base is just a few miles to the northwest at Pinal Air Park.
