Wasn't that the mod called the Bacon Super Six? If memory serves it had a tight bumped cowling, a low single piece bubble canopy and retractable tricycle landing gear to boot... I think I heard it was sitting derelict in Southern California and up for sale.

Despite the modifications to an already nice plane, the super six was a jazzy looking little number--wonder how it flew.
