The A-20 being restored is at Air Heritage... this is an A-20H which he recovered from Managua, Nicaragua in the late 70's. There is another A-20 (A-20G 43-21627), which was recovered from PNG in '74 for Tallichet by Charles D'Arby. This is still at Chino as far as I know. I took several photographs of it in the 90's, though, it is always possible that it has moved on since then.

Cheers,
Richard

PS. If you want A-20 stuff, go to the Australian Airforce Museum, as they have two completely restored examples, as well as the substantial remains of about six others.
